Part 3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

3ELECTRICAL CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS

This appliance must be installed and grounded on a branch circuit by a qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 - latest edition.

All wiring should conform to Local and NEC. This range requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208V or 120/240V 60Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord with closed- loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned ends or similar terminations. Cord must have the strain relief properly installed.

A range cord rated at 40 amps with 120/240 minimum volt range is required. If a 50 amp range cord is used, it should be marked for use with 138” diameter connection openings.

This appliance may be connected by means of conduit or power cord. If conduit is being used, go to page 6 3 wire conduit connections or page 7 for 4 wire conduit connections.

WARNING

New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and installations where local codes do not allow grounding through neutral require a 4-conductor UL listed range cord or 4 wire conduit connection.

Conduit connection plate is used for the installation of power cord or conduit. For power cord, install it with conduit connection plate as manufacturer supplied. For conduit cord, remove the conduit connection plate located below the rear of the drawer body and use the conduit hole (11/8”) instead of power cord hole (13/8”). (Refer to Figure 8.)
