Electrical Connection - Bosch HEI80 Installation Instructions Manual

Electrical Connection

The range may be connected using an electric range cord
(as specified in the Electrical Requirements section
preceeding) or using a flexible conduit electrical
connection.
9 WARNING
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply
cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install
an outlet near the appliance.
Note: In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory with
the range cord already installed. Continue to "Complete the
installation" on page 13.
Note: It is recommended that only qualified persons add a
power cord or make electrical connections to this
appliance.
For installations other than those in Canada, connect the
range cord at the terminal block. Access the terminal block
by removing the cover in the lower left hand corner of the
range back panel.

Install Strain Relief
Place strain relief in knockout below terminal block.
9 WARNING
The strain relief provided with your range cord must
be properly installed. Strain reliefs vary. Carefully
read and follow the instructions included with your
strain relief.
1. In the knockout panel below the terminal block, remove
the knockout that fits the strain relief that comes with
your range cord.
2. Feed the range cord through the hole and the strain
relief up to terminal block. Allow for slack in the cord
between the strain relief and terminal block.
3. Once the cord length/slack has been adjusted, attach
the strain relief per instructions included with strain
relief.
Tip: The knockout panel (below the terminal block) can be
removed from the range to install the strain relief. Remove
the panel from range, install strain relief in panel and
reattach. DO NOT remove entire range back panel.
Preparation for Power Connection
9 WARNING
Risk of Electric Shock or Fire. Frame grounded to
neutral through a ground strap. Grounding through
the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-
circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes, and
recreational vehicles, or in an area where local
codes prohibit grounding through the neutral
conductor.
For installations where grounding through the neutral
conductor is prohibited: (a) disconnect the link from the
neutral, (b) use grounding terminal or lead to ground unit,
(c) connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral in
the usual manner. When the appliance is to be connected
by means of a cord kit, use 4-conductor cord for this
purpose.
Use only cord kits rated 125/250 volts, 40 amperes
(minimum), and labeled "For Use with Ranges". Strain relief
provided with the cord must be installed per instructions
included with the cord.
