3-Wire Conduit Installation Option

Locate the copper ground strap on the lower back of the range.

Loosen the upper center screw on the terminal block.

Slide the open slotted end of the ground strap under the upper center screw on the terminal block. Make sure the ground strap is all the way against the upper center screw and tighten it in place.

Place the ground plate (removed earlier) over the bottom of the ground strap, press them against the range frame and attach them with the ground screw (removed earlier).

Remove the strain relief clamp from the bracket.

Assemble the squeeze connector (obtained locally), matching the diameter of your conduit, in the bracket hole. Insert the conduit through the squeeze connector. Allow enough slack to easily attach the wires to the terminal block.

NOTE: Do not install the conduit without a squeeze connector.

Insert the center bare wire (white/neutral) tip through the bottom center terminal block opening. On certain models, the wire will need to be inserted through the ground strap opening and then into the bottom center block opening. Insert the two side bare wire tips into the lower left and the lower right terminal block openings. Tighten the screws until the wire is firmly secure (approximately 20 inch-lbs.).

NOTE: Make sure the wire is completely inserted into the terminal block and a secure connection is made.

Secure the squeeze connector in place in the bracket by tightening the squeeze connector screws.

NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING:

Aluminum building wire may be used but it must be rated for the correct amperage and voltage to make connection.
