A pre-wired junction box receptacle with strain relief is provided on the
right side of the cabinet for hard wiring the unit to a 15 Amp, 120VAC,
60Hz grounded branch circuit. If the installation demands that the
electrical supply be connected from the left side, the entire receptacle

on the right side of the cabinet (see Figure 32).
2. Remove inner retaining screw on the junction box mounting tab.
3. Slide the junction box up until the screw mounting tab is lined
up to the notch in the outer cabinet.
4. Swing the junction box out and slip the retaining flange out
through the slot in the outer cabinet.
5. Remove the two screws and outer cover on the left side
of the outer cabinet.
6. Reinsert the junction box retaining flange through the slot now
on the left side and swing the screw mounting tab back through
the notch as before.
7. Slide the junction box down till the mounting tab holes line up
and replace the inner retaining screw.
8. With the junction box cover removed, pull the end of 3-wire
Romex supply line through the universal strain relief bushing
on the cover. (see Figure 32).
9. Strip back the outer Romex to about 4” and connect the black,
white and green wires accordingly using 3 wire nut connectors.
10. Tuck the tailing wires into the junction box and replace the
junction box cover using the 2 remaining screws.
11. Tighten down the strain adjustment on the universal bushing
until the Romex sheathing is secured.
The electrical connection is now complete.
