ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
• This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.70 (latest edition) and
local electrical code requirements. IN CANADA: Electrical installation must be in
accordance with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Codes Part1 and/or local
codes.
• This appliance may be connected by means of permanent “Hard Wiring” or “Power
Supply Cord”. Power supply cord is not supplied, but it is available through your local
electric supply house.
• The range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and frequency as spec-
ified on the rating plate.
• The range can be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box)
through flexible, armoured or non-metallic sheathed, copper cable (with grounding
wire). Allow two to three feet of slack in the line so that it can be moved if servicing
is ever necessary.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH POWER CORD
Use a 3-wire power supply cord kit rated for 40 amps - 120/240 volts with closed loop
terminals and marked for use with ranges. Where local codes do not permit grounding
through neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord.
The CSA/UL-listed cord must be secured to the range with the strain relief bracket. The
electrical connection is made at the terminal block, which is located behind the access
door on the back of the range.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH CONDUIT
Use 1/2” (1.3 cm) trade size CSA/UL-listed conduit with a conduit clamp, 12 AWG/600
volt copper conductor colored red for line 1 and black for line 2 and 12 AWG/600
volt copper conductor (or 10 AWG/600 volt copper conductor if grounding through
neutral) colored white for neutral with closed loop terminals marked for use with ranges.
Where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, use a green 10 AWG cop-
per conductor as directed in the 4-wire connector directions. The conduit must be
secured to the range with the strain relief bracket. The electrical connection is made at
the terminal block which is located behind the access door on the back of the range.
