Installation Preparation
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
These Monogram built-in ovens require a separate
properly grounded 3-wire 120/208 or 120/240 volt, 60
Hz power supply, protected by a time delay fuse or
circuit breaker.
• Double ovens are rated at 6.5 KW at 240 volt and 6.5
KW at 208 volt.
• Single ovens are rated at 3.3 KW at 240 volt and 2.8
KW at 208 volt.
• Ovens are supplied with a flexible power cable
which must be attached to a junction box. The cable
length is 53" for both single and double convection
ovens.
• DO NOT use an extension cord with these appli-
ances.
• DO NOT shorten the flexible power cable.
We recommend that the electrical wiring and hookup
of your oven be performed by a qualified electrician.
After installation, have the electrician show you
where your main oven disconnect is located.
Check with local utilities for electrical codes which
apply in your area. Failure to wire the oven according
to governing codes could result in a hazardous
condition. If there are no local codes, the oven must
be wired and fused in accordance with Nation
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-latest edition. You

The National Electrical Code requires that new, but
not existing construction utilize a four-conductor
connection to an electric oven. When installing an
electric oven in new construction, a mobile home,
recreational vehicle or an area where local codes
prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor,
follow instructions in the section on NEW CON-
STRUCTION AND FOUR-CONDUCTOR BRANCH
CIRCUIT CONNECTION.
