NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads
supplied with the appliance are ULqisted for connection
to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of the
leads is rated at temperatures much higher than
temperature rating of household wiring. The current
carrying capacity of the conductor wire is governed by
tile temperature rating of tile insulation around the wire,
rather than tile wire gauge alone.
