HOUSE WIRING

Most local building regulations and codes require that all electrical wiring be done by licensed electricians. All wiring should conform to Local or National Electrical Codes. This oven 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 oven 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.

RANGE CONNECTIONS

The flexible armored conduit supplied with the oven must be connected to an approved electrical junction box by means of an approved conduit to box connector. THE FRAME OF THE OVEN IS GROUNDED TO NEUTRAL ONLY WHEN THE WHITE AND BARE WIRES AT THE END OF OVEN CONDUIT ARE JOINED TOGETHER. Connect the white and bare wire at the end of the oven conduit 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, untwist or disconnect the bare wire and connect the bare wire to ground in accordance with local code. Connect the white wire to the branch circuit. The red and black wires must be connected to the remaining two conductors of the branch circuit. 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.
