To properly install your microwave oven, you must determine

the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow

the instructions provided for it here.

Microwave oven must be connected to the proper

electrical voltage and frequency as specified on the

model/serial/rating plate. The model/serial/rating plate

is located underneath the control panel, along the

oven vent.

A. Model/serial/rating plate

The microwave oven rated 240 volt, 20-amp, has 4

wires

(L1, L2, N and G) in the flex conduit and should be

connected to a 20-amp 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.
