Whirlpool 9.76E+13 Power supply cord method, Four-wire electrical connection

Power supply cord method:

NOTE: The bag containing three aluminum terminal lugs is not used when connecting the range using a power supply cord.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

Use new 40 amp power supply cord.

Plug into grounded outlet.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

5.Use either ring-type terminals or spade terminals with upturned ends to connect the power supply.

6.Complete electrical connection according to your type electrical supply (“Four-wire electrical connection” or “Three-wire electrical connection.”)

Four-wire electrical connection:

ground link

ground-link screw

Figure1

10.Connect the neutral wire (center wire) to the center terminal screw on the terminal block. See Figure 2.

11.Connect the other two wires (lines 1 and 2) to the outer screws on the terminal block. See Figure 2.

12.Securely tighten nuts with 3/8" nut driver for proper electrical connection.

13.Tighten the strain relief screws.

14.Replace the terminal block cover.

15.Plug power supply cord into grounded electrical outlet.

Three-wire electrical connection:

center terminal block screw

WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal connected to the cabinet. Use a three-wire, U.L.-listed, 40 amp power supply cord (pigtail); or if local codes Do Not permit ground through the neutral, use a four-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

1.Disconnect power.

2.Remove the knockout for the 40 amp power supply cord.

3.Assemble a U.L.-listed strain relief in the opening.

4.Insert the power supply cord through the strain relief, allowing enough slack to easily attach the wiring to the terminal block.

Figure 2

Use this method for new installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and whenever four-wire installation is required.

7.Remove the ground-link screw from the range frame. Save the ground-link screw. Bend up the ground link so that it does not contact the range. See Figure 1.

8.Connect the green ground wire from power supply cord to the range using the ground-link screw. The ground wire must be attached first and must not contact any other terminal. See Figure 2.

9.Use 3/8" nut driver and remove the outside nuts on the terminal block screws. Do not loosen the factory- tightened nuts behind the outside nuts.
