Electrical requirements
ࠜ A four-wire or three-wire, single-
phase, 120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only,
If codes permit and a separate ground
wire is used, it is recommended that a
qualified electrician determine that the
ground path and wire gauge are in
accordance with local codes.
When a four-wire receptacle of NEMA
Type 14-50R is used (see Figure 1), a
matching U.L.-listed, four-wire, 250-volt,
40 amp, range power supply cord
(pigtail) must be used.This cord
contains four copper conductors with
ring terminals at the appliance end,
terminating in a NEMAType 14-50P
plug on the supply end.The fourth
(grounding) conductor must be
identified by a green or green/yellow
cover and the neutral conductor by a
white cover. Cord should beType SRD
or SRDT with a U.L.-listed strain relief
and be at least four feet long.
electrical supply (or three-wire or four-
wire 120/208-volt if specified on the
model/serial rating plate) is required on a
separate, 40 amp circuit, fused on both
sides of the line.
This range must be connected to a
grounded metal, permanent wiring
system.
ࠜ A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are not sure range is properly grounded.
ࠜ The range can be connected directly
to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker
box) through flexible armored conduit.
See “Direct wire method: Copper wire” or
“Direct wire method: Aluminum wire”
sections.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
ground circuit.
The minimum conductor sizes for the
copper four-wire power cord are:
Recommended ground
method
Allow two to three feet of slack in the line
so that it can be moved if servicing is
ever necessary.
40 amp circuit
2 No.-8 conductors
1 No.-10 white neutral
1 No.-8 green grounding
It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to contact a
qualified electrician to assure that the
electrical installation is adequate and is in
conformance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition*
and all local codes and ordinances.
A U.L.-listed conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply
cable (at the range and at the junction
box).
If connecting to a three-wire
system:
Wire sizes and connections must conform
with the rating of the range (40 amps).
Local codes may permit the use of a
U.L.-listed, 250-volt, 40 amp range
power supply cord (pigtail).This cord
contains three, No.-10 copper wires and
matches a three-wire receptacle of
NEMAType 10-50R, shown in Figure 2.
Connectors on the appliance end must
be provided at the point the power
supply cord enters the appliance.
Power supply cord is not supplied, but is
available through your local electrical
supply house.
ࠜ
The wiring diagram is located on the
back of the range or on the inside of the
storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.
Range must be connected to the proper
electrical voltage and frequency as
specified on the model/serial rating plate.
(The model/serial rating plate is located
on the oven frame behind the storage
drawer panel.)
If connecting to a four-wire
system:
This range is manufactured with the
ground connected to the cabinet.The
ground must be revised so the green
grounding wire of the four-wire power
supply cord is connected to the cabinet.
