Step 6: Electrical Requirements, Connection & Grounding
Dual Fuel models must be connected to the power supply utilizing one of the following methods. For all
methods of connection, the length of the cord or conduit/wiring must allow the unit to be slid completely out
of the cabinet without having to unplug or disconnect the unit from the power supply. Recommended minimum
free length of cord or conduit is four feet. Electrical installations and grounding must be in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances, and/or the National Electric Code, as applicable.
• 4-CONDUCTOR CORD -
NORMALLY, A UNIT MUST
BE CONNECTED TO THE
POWER SUPPLY WITH A 3-
POLE, 4-CONDUCTOR
CORD KIT RATED 125/250
VOLTS, 50 AMPERES, AND
MARKED FOR USE WITH
RANGES. The cord kit must
be attached to the range junc-
tion box with a strain relief which
will fit a 1" diameter hole. If not
already equipped, the cord
must have 1/4" faston closed-
loop lugs attached to the free
ends of the individual conduc-
tors, preferably soldered in
place.
• PERMANENT CONNECTION
(HARD WIRING) - Units may
be hard wired to the power
supply. The installer must
provide approved flexible
aluminum conduit, 3/4" trade
size, maximum 6 feet long.
Locate the junction box on the
rear of the unit and remove
cover. Refer to Fig.8. Remove
the ground strap retaining
screw and bend the ground
strap up. Refer to Fig. 9. The
conduit must be installed to the
junction box using an approved
conduit connector.
Wiring for the unit is to be
brought into the junction box
through the conduit. The ends
of the wiring must have
1/4" faston closed-loop lugs
attached, preferably soldered
in place. Make the connections
to the terminal block provided.
Secure the ground lead to the
junction box with the screw
previously used to secure the
ground strap. Refer to Fig. 11.
The free end of the conduit
must be connected to a junc-
tion box provided in the gas
and electrical supply zone, as
shown in Figure 3A on Page 7.
