Electrical Connection
To properly install your microwave oven, you must determine the
type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the
instructions provided for it here.
■ Microwave oven must be connected to the proper electrical
voltage and frequency as specified on the model/serial
number rating plate. The model/serial number rating plate is
located on the left-hand side trim.
■ The microwave oven rated 120/240 volt, 20-amp, has 4 wires
(L1, L2, N and G) in the flex conduit and should be connected
to a 20-amp maximum rated circuit, overcurrent protected on
both the L1 and L2 circuits.
■ A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
■ Flexible cable from the microwave oven should be connected
directly to the junction box.
■ Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the microwave oven.
■ A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided.
■ If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
