Electrical Connection

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Electrical Connection

Safety Instructions

We recommend that you have the electrical hookup of your range done by a qualified electrician. Have the electrician show you where your range disconnect is located.

Call your Electric Company and ask which codes apply in your area. If there are no codes, you must follow the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70, latest edition. You can get a copy by writing:

National Fire Protection Association

Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269

If you fail to wire your range in accordance with governing codes, you may create a hazardous condition.

You must use a three-wire, single-phase AC 208/240 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system to operate your range.

Use #8 wire and 40 Amp fuse or circuit breaker for 240 Volt and 208 Volt systems.

Do not use aluminum wiring to connect your range to the household circuit.

Operating Instructions Care

To Make Electrical Connection

and

Remove the junction block access cover (on range back).

Effective January 1, 1996 the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range.

Use only 3-conductor or 4-conductor U.L. listed range cord. You must use the strain relief clamp provided with the range to hold the cord.

Use a range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range and closed loop terminals. Care should be taken to center cable and strain relief within knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable.

NOTE: A 4-conductor cord is to be used when the appliance is installed in a mobile home or when local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral.

Cleaning Installation

Hard Wiring

The power cord bracket also incorporates a 7/8″ diameter opening for hard wiring (armored cable, flexible conduit, romex wire, etc.).

If this type of wire is used, remove the strain relief clamp and bracket and reposition the bracket so the 7/8″ diameter hole is at the bottom to accept the hard wiring.
