� The microwave oven rated 120/240 V, 20 A, has 4 wires (L1,
L2, N, and G) in the flex conduit, and should be connected to a
20 A maximum-rated circuit, overcurrent protected on both the
L1 and L2 circuits.
� A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
� Flexible cable from the microwave oven should be connected
directly to the junction box.
� Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the microwave oven.
