Electrical Requirements; Electrical Connection - KitchenAid KECC051HBT1 Installation Instructions Manual

Electrical requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the ground path is
adequate.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are
not sure the cooktop is properly grounded.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or ground
circuit.
IMPORTANT:
Save Installation Instructions for electrical
inspector's use.
A= A three-wire or four-wire, single phase,
240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only electrical supply is
required on a separate, 40-ampere circuit, (Note:
The KECC051 series requires a 20-ampere
circuit), fused on both sides of the line. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating
of the appliance specified on the model/serial
rating plate located on the bottom of the cooktop.
B m THE COOKTOP MUST BE
CONNECTED WITH COPPER WIRE ONLY.
C= Wire sizes and connections must conform
to the requirements of the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition **, or CSA
Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 - latest edition ***
and all local codes and ordinances.
D m The cooktop should be connected directly
to the fused disconnect or circuit breaker box
through flexible, armored or non-metallic
sheathed, copper cable. The flexible, armored
cable extending from the fuse box or circuit
breaker box should be connected directly to the
junction box.
E= 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 is ever necessary. Do Not cut the
conduit.
Fm A U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector
must be provided at each end of the power
supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction
box).

Electrical connection
For model KECC051 series only:
Electrical Shock Hazard
Turn power supply off before connecting
wires.
Use 12-gauge solid copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
This cooktop must be connected to a
grounded, metallic permanent wiring system or
a ground connector should be connected to the
ground terminal or wire lead on the cooktop.
This cooktop is manufactured with a frame
connected, green or bare ground wire. Connect
the cooktop cable to the junction box through the
U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector.
Complete electrical connection according to local
codes and ordinances.
Panel B
For all models except KECC051 series:
Electrical Shock Hazard
Turn power supply off before connecting
wires.
Use 8-gauge solid copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
This cooktop must be connected to a
grounded, metallic permanent wiring system
or a ground connector should be connected
to the ground terminal or wire lead on the
cooktop.
This cooktop is manufactured with a frame
connected, green or bare ground wire. Connect
the cooktop cable to the junction box through the
U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector.
Complete electrical connection according to local
codes and ordinances.
For all cooktop models with three-
wire cable from the cooktop:

on conduit connector.
3. Connect the two black wires together; then
connect the two red wires together using twist-
on connector. (See Figure 1.)
4. Connect the green or bare ground wire from
the cooktop cable to the grounded wire in the
junction box or other grounded connector
using twist-on connector.
5. Put a twist-on connector on end of white wire.
Do Not connect bare ground wire to neutral
(white) wire in junction box.
