PRODUCT MODEL NUMBERS
KCED600G
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
■ A 4-wire or 3-wire, single-phase, 120-/240-volt, 60 Hz., AC-only electrical supply on a separate, 40-amp circuit breaker is
required for both 30" (76.2 cm) and 36" (91.4 cm) models. If a fused system is used, fuse both sides of the line.
■ The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box through the flexible metal conduit. The flexible, armored cable
extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the junction box.
