Four Wire Range Cord Connection
(Recommended Method)
1. Disconnect electrical power at breaker box.
2. Remove the terminal block cover to expose the terminal block.
WARNING:
Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Frame grounded to neutral through a
ground strap. Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited
for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, and
recreational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor.
For installations where grounding through the neutral conductor is
prohibited, (a) disconnect the link from the neutral, (b) use grounding
terminal or lead to ground unit, (c) connect neutral terminal to lead
branch circuit neutral in usual manner (when the appliance is to be
connected by means of a cord kit, use 4-conductor cord for this
purpose).
Use only cord kits rated 125/250 volts (minimum), 30 amperes and
labeled “For Use with Ranges”. Strain relief provided with cord must
be installed per instructions included with cord.
Figure 12: Grounding Requirements
WARNING:
To prevent electrical shock, the grounding prong on the range cord
should not be cut or removed under any circumstances. It must be
plugged into a matching grounding type receptacle and connected to
a correctly polarized 240- Volt circuit. If there is any doubt as to
whether the wall receptacle is properly grounded, have it checked by
a qualified electrician.
