INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Electric Counter Mounted Surface Units
READ “SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” IN USE & CARE BOOK BEFORE USING UNIT
In order to assure the best results in service, proper operation and maximum efficiency, the original installation and adjustment
should be made by your dealer, his authorized agent, or by your local utility company before you attempt to operate the surface
unit.
LOCATION
Place unit where it will be well lighted. For proper cooking results, it must be level. THESE ELECTRIC COUNTER MOUNTED
SURFACE UNITS ARE APPROVED FOR INSTALLATION IN COMBUSTIBLE CABINETRY. SEE INSTALLATION
DIAGRAM FOR THE APPROPRIATE UNIT ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES OF THIS INSTRUCTION SHEET.
OUTSIDE WIRING
Your local utility company will tell you whether the present
electric service to your home is adequate. It may be
necessary to increase the size of the wiring to the house and
service switch to take care of the electrical load demanded
by the surface unit and/or oven. The wattage (K.W. rating)
load for the range is specified on the name plate on the unit.
HOUSE WIRING
Most local building regulations and codes require that all
electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. All wiring
should conform to Local and National Electrical Codes. This
unit requires a single phase three wire 120/240 or a 120/208
volt, 60 Hz, AC circuit. Wiring codes require that a separate
circuit be run from the main entrance panel to the unit and
that it be equipped with separate disconnect switch and
fuses, either in the main entrance panel or in a separate
switch and fuse box.
UNIT CONNECTIONS
This unit is supplied with a 240/208 volt wiring system
consisting of 2 insulated conductors and 1 bare grounding
wire for use on a 3 wire 120/240 or a 120/208 volts, 60 Hz,
AC branch circuit. The flexible armored conduit supplied
with the unit must be connected to an approved electrical
junction box by means of an approved conduit to box
connector.
THE BARE WIRE IN THE UNIT CONDUIT IS CONNECTED
TO THE FRAME OF THE UNIT. THE FRAME OF THE UNIT
IS GROUNDED TO NEUTRAL OF THE BRANCH CIRCUIT
ONLY WHEN THIS BARE WIRE IS CONNECTED TO THE
NEUTRAL (WHITE) WIRE OF THE BRANCH CIRCUIT. If
used on new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile
homes, recreational vehicles, or in an area where local
codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, the
bare wire at the end of the unit conduit must be used to
ground the unit in accordance with local code. The red and
black wires must be connected to two conductors (red and
black) of the branch circuit. The neutral (white) wire of the
branch circuit must be properly insulated. Connect all wires
to the branch circuit with approved connectors. Use copper
or aluminum wire. If aluminum wire is used, use connectors
recognized for joining aluminum to copper.
RANGE GROUNDED THROUGH NEUTRAL CONDUCTOR
WIRING METHOD IF CODE DOES NOT PERMIT GROUNDING
THROUGH NEUTRAL CONDUCTOR & ALSO REQUIRED IN MOBILE
HOMES.
WARNING: Be sure UNIT is DISCONNECTED from
POWER SUPPLY before examining any of the electrical
equipment.
