Electrical requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground range.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground
wire is used, it is recommended that a
qualified electrician determine that the
ground path is in accordance with local
codes.
This range must be connected to a
grounded metal, permanent wiring
system.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are not sure range is properly grounded.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or
ground circuit.
When a four-wire or three-wire, single-
phase, 120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only,
electrical supply is available, a 50-ampere
maximum circuit protection is required
(or, if specified on the model/serial rating
plate, when a four-wire or three-wire,
single-phase 120/208-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only
electrical supply is available, a 40-ampere
maximum circuit protection is required),
fused on both sides of the line. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended. The model/serial rating
plate is located on the oven frame behind
the drawer.
Connection at connection block must be
copper wire only.
If the house has aluminum wiring, follow
the procedure below:
a.) Connect a section of 8-gauge, solid
copper wire to the connector block.
b.) Connect the aluminum wiring to the
added section of copper wire using
special connectors designed and
Underwriters Laboratories-listed for
joining copper to aluminum. Follow
the electrical connector
manufacturer's recommended
procedure.
c.) Aluminum/copper connection must
conform with local codes and
industry-accepted wiring practice.
Wire sizes and connections must conform
to the requirements of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 -- latest
edition* or CSA Standard C22.1,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 -- latest
edition ** and all local codes and
ordinances for the kilowatt rating of the
range.
This range should be connected directly
to the fused disconnect or circuit breaker
box through flexible, armored or non-
metallic sheathed, copper cable (with
ground wire). Locate the junction box to
allow two to three feet of slack in the line
so that the range can be moved if
servicing is ever necessary. Do not cut
the conduit.
A U.L.- or CSA-Jisted conduit connector
must be provided at each end of the
power supply cable (at the range and at
the junction box). Wires sizes (copper
wire only) and connections must conform
with the rating of the range.
