DIRECT WIRE CONNECTION

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Turn power supply off before connecting wires.

Electrically ground range.

Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

4.Disconnect the power supply.

5.Remove the screws from the terminal block cover.

6.Remove the 3/8brass nuts that are at- tached to the knockout opening and set them aside. Use these brass nuts to se- cure the ring-type terminals on the power supply cord to the terminal block screws.

NOTE: Use only ring-type terminals to connect the power supply cord.

7.Remove the knockout for the 40- ampere power supply cord.

8.Mount a U.L.-listed strain relief in the knock- out opening.

This range must be connected to a ground- ed, metallic, permanent wiring system, or a ground connector should be connected to the ground terminal, or to the ground wire lead on the range.

The conductors at the terminal block must be copper wire only.

If the house has aluminum wiring, perform steps 1 through 3, otherwise skip those steps.

1.Connect a section of 8-gauge, solid cop- per wire to the terminal block.

2.Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special con- nectors that were designed by Underwrit- ers Laboratories for joining copper to alu minum. Follow the procedure recom mended by the manufacturer to connect the wires.

3.The aluminum-to-copper connections must conform with local codes and industry accepted wiring practice.

9.Strip 3of outer covering from the end of each wire on the power supply cord.

10.Form a hook in the bare wire ends of the power supply cord.

1"

11.Insert the power supply cord through the strain relief, and allow enough slack so you can easily attach the wiring to the terminal block.

12.Depending on the type of electrical sys- tem, proceed to “4-Wire Electrical Con- nection,” (on page 2-6), or “3-Wire Electri- cal Connection,” (on page 2-7), and com- plete the wiring.
