Electrical Connection

AUTION
For personal safety, do not use an extension cord with the range. Remove the house fuse or open
the circuit breaker before starting the installation.
The range must receive the proper voltage and frequency and connect to an individual, properly
grounded branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or fuse having amperage as specified on the
rating plate (left-side door trim). The range's power hookup should be done by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you where to turn off power to the range.
Consult local utilities for applicable codes. Failure to wire your oven per these codes could create a
safety hazard. If there are no such codes, your range must be wired and fused per the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70–Latest Edition. For a copy, write: National Fire Protection
Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269
Effective Jan. 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction use a 4-
conductor connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new construction,
follow Steps 2 and 3 for 4-wire connection.
• A 3-wire or 4-wire, single-phase A.C. 240 Volt, 60 hertz electrical system is required. If the home
electrical service does not meet the above specifications, have a licensed electrician install an
approved outlet.
• Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided
with ring
terminals on wire and a strain relief device.
• A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. (A 50 amp range
cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with nominal 1⅜" diameter
connection openings. Center the cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the
edge from damaging the cable.)
• Because range terminals are inaccessible when the range is in position, flexible conduit/cord
must be used.
NOTE
If conduit is being used, see Pg. 25.
ALL NEW BRANCH-CIRCUIT CONSTRUCTION, MOBILE HOMES, RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, AND
INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL CODES PROHIBIT GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL, REQUIRE A
4-CONDUCTOR UL-LISTED RANGE CORD.
