Connection To The Range - Kenmore 79046622504 Installation Instructions Manual

Power Suppmy Cord Kit
The user is responsible for connecting tile power supply
cord to tile connection block located behind tile back
panel access (:over.
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 (.lamp.

with ! 1/8" dia. hole as shown on figure 3. If a larger hole
is required,
punch
out the knockout.
Risk of fire or e[ectrka[ shock exists [f
the incorrect amperage cord [s used, the
installation instructions are not followed, or the
strain relief bracket is discarded (see Figure 3).
Do not [oosen 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 terminaJ or wire [ead 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 (able must be replaced with a
4-conductor cord or (able 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):
1. Remove the 3 screws at the lower end of the rear
wire (:over, then bend the lower end of the rear wire
(over (access cover) upward to expose range
terminal connection block (see Figure 2).
