English 7
Ranges are dual rated for use on either 120/240 VAC or 120/208 VAC. Check the
data plate for the kW rating. Reference the kW rating in the table below to
determine amperage requirements.
The electrical outlet must be located in the shaded space shown in “Gas Supply
Line and Electrical Outlet Placement” on page 8.
Verify that wiring to house is adequate
Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your
home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and
service switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the
range.
Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and
fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box.
The range requires a minimum of a three wire 120/240 or 120/208 volt, 30 AMP,
60 Hz AC circuit. Check local codes for proper amperage ratings. A four wire
connection is preferred.
Most local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by
licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes
in place in your region.
Gas Requirements
Shut off main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off
until the new hook-up has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pilot on
other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on.
