Electrical Connection - Kenmore 4101 - Elite 30 in. Slide-In Electric Range Installation Instructions Manual

SNPower Supply Cord Kit
The user is responsible for connecting the power supply
cord to the connection block located behind the back
panel access cover.
This appliance may be connected by means of permanent
"hard wiring" (flexible armored or nonmetallic shielded
copper cable), or by means of a power supply cord. Only a
power supply cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, 40
amperes minimum and marked for use with ranges shall be
used. See chart (below) for cord kit connection opening size
rating information. Cord must have either 3 or 4 conductors.

For mobile homes, new installations, recreational
vehicles, or areas where local codes do not permit
grounding through neutral, a 4 conductor power supply
cord kit rated at 125/250 volts minimum, 40 amperes
and marked for use with ranges should be used (see
Figure 4).
Terminals on end of wires must be either closed loop or
open-end spade lugs with upturned ends. Cord must
have strain-relief clamp.

NOTE: Dual fuel Slide-in Range is shipped from factory
with 1 1/8" dia. hole as shown on figure 3. If a larger hole
is required, punch out the knockout.
Risk of fire or electrical shock exists if
the incorrect amperage cord is used, the
Installation instructions are not followed, or the
strain relief bracket is discarded (see Figure 3).
Do not loosen the nuts which secure
the factory-installed range wiring to terminal block
while connecting range. Electrical failure or loss of
electrical connection may occur.
Electrical Connection to the Range
This appliance is manufactured with the neutral terminal
connected to the frame.
Note: Refer to the wiring diagram in the center pages of
this manual.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
Do not connect to the electrical supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
Disconnect power to the circuit breaker or fuse
box before making the electrical connection.
This appliance must be connected to a
grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system,
or a grounding connector should be connected
to the grounding terminal or wire lead on the
appliance.
• Do not use the gas supply line for grounding
the appliance.
Failure to do any of the above could result in a
fire, personal injury or electrical shock.
Three Conductor Wire Connection to Range
(The 3-conductor cord or cable must be replaced with a
4-conductor cord or cable where grounding through the
neutral conductor is prohibited in new installations,
mobile homes, recreational vehicles or in other areas
where local codes do not permit neutral grounding)
If local codes permit connection of the frame grounding
conductor to the neutral wire of the copper power supply
cord (see Figure 3):
,
Remove the 3 screws at the lower end of the rear
wire cover, then bend the lower end of the rear wire
cover (access cover) upward to expose range
terminal connection block (see Figure 2).
