Quincy, MA 02169-7471

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

■ Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage

and frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating plate. The model/serial number rating plate is located under the front left burner bowl. Refer to the figure in the “Location Requirements” section.

■ This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal

connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire UL listed, 40- or 50amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see Range Rating chart below). If local codes do not permit ground through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.

Range Rating* Specified Rating of

Power Supply Cord Kit and Circuit Protection

120/240 Volts 120/208 Volts Amps

8.0 - 16.5 KW

16.6 - 22.5 KW

6.0 - 12.5 KW

12.6 - 18.5 KW

40 or 50** 50

If connecting to a 4-wire system:

This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet. See the “Electrical Connection” section.

Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.

When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40-amp, range power supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the supply end.

The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white cover. Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a UL listed strain relief and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.

4-wire receptacle (14-50R)

The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power cord are:

40-amp circuit 2 No.-8 conductors 1 No.-10 white neutral 1 No.-8 green grounding

If connecting to a 3-wire system:

Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250 volt, 40-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.

*The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected load

listed on the model/serial rating plate.

**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with

kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.93 mm) diameter connection opening.

■ A circuit breaker is recommended.

■ The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker

box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See the “Electrical Connection” section.

■ Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that

the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

■ A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end

of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction box).

■ Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of

the range (40 amps).

■ The wiring diagram is located on the underside of the storage

drawer in a clear plastic bag.
