into rating for maximum vent system length. A suitable wall/roof
cap must be used.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Use 10 gauge copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended
that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance
with local
codes.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance
with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-
94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-
latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch
Park
Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
Before You Make the Electrical
Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only
electrical supply is required on a separate, 30-amp circuit,
fused on both sides of the line.
Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible
between the junction box and the cooktop so that the
cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in the
future.
Do not cut the conduit. Use the length of conduit provided.
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the
cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector
is already provided at the cooktop.
If the house has aluminum wiring, connect the aluminum
wiring to the copper wire by using special connectors
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's
recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper
connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
