Electrical Requirements - U.S.A. Only

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes and that the ground path is adequate.

Do not use an extension cord.

Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association,

One Batterymarch Park,

Quincy, MA 02269

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

Do not ground to a gas pipe.

Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure

 

the range is properly grounded.

Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage

and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating

plate. (The model/serial number rating plate is located on the

right vertical surface of the oven door frame.)

Range must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent

wiring system.

*NOTE: Receptacle must be rotated 90° for Canadian installation.

**NOTE: 42" (106.7 cm) minimum when bottom of wood or metal cabinet is protected by not less than ¹⁄₄" (0.64 cm) flame retardant millboard covered with not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015" (0.4 mm) stainless steel, 0.024" (0.6 mm) aluminum or 0.020" (0.5 mm) copper.

48" (121.9 cm) minimum clearance between the top of the cooking platform and the bottom of an unprotected wood or metal cabinet.

If installing a hood above the range, follow the hood instructions for dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.

circuit, fused on both sides of the line.

A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. The

fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the range

specified on the model/serial rating plate located on the right

vertical surface of the oven door frame.

The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect

(or circuit breaker box) through flexible, armored or

nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. The

flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse box or circuit

breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box.

See “Make Electrical Connection.”

Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible

between the junction box and the range so that the range can

be moved if servicing is ever necessary. Do not cut the

conduit.

A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end

of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction

box).

Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of

the range (30 amps).

If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure

below:

a) Connect the aluminum wiring to the copper wiring using

special connectors designed and UL listed for joining

copper to aluminum. Follow the electrical connector

manufacturer’s recommended procedure.

b) Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local

codes and industry-accepted wiring practices.
