Connect Electric
There are four possible electrical connections:
1. Four (4) wire range cord
2. Three (3) wire range cord
3. Four (4) wire flexible conduit connection (hard wire)
4. Three (3) wire flexible conduit connection (hard wire)
The four wire range cord connection is the recommended method, but where local
codes permit, three wire connections are also acceptable.
As an alternative to the range cord, the appliance can also be hard wired with
either a three or four wire connection. In this case, the terminal lugs supplied must
be used.
Always verify that your chosen connection complies with all applicable codes.
Table 1, “Electrical Specifications,” on page 6.
WARNING:
To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on the range cord
should not be cut or removed under any circumstances. It must be
plugged into a matching grounding type receptacle and connected to a
correctly polarized 240- Volt circuit. If there is any doubt as to whether
the wall receptacle is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified
electrician.
WARNING:
Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Frame grounded to neutral through a
ground strap. Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for
new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, and recre-
ational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor.
For installations where grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited, (a)
disconnect the link from the neutral, (b) use grounding terminal or lead to ground
unit, (c) connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral in usual manner
