A.A three-wire or four-wire single phase 120/240 volt 60Hz AC only electrical supply (or three-wire or four-wire 120/206 volt if specified on nameplate) is required on a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). Do NOT fuse neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating of the appliance specified on the nameplate.

NOTE: Wire sizes and connections must conform with the fuse size and rate of the appliance in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.

Do not use an extension cord.

6.The appliance should be connected to the fused discon- nect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or non-metallic sheathed cable. The flexible armored cable extending from the appliance should be connected directly to the junction box. The junction box should be located as shown in Figure 1 so that as much slack as possible remains in the cable between the box and the appliance so that it can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

C. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
