WARNING:
If house wiring is not 2-wire with ground, a ground must be
provided by the installer. When house wiring is aluminum, be sure
to use UL-Listed anti-oxidant compound and aluminum-to-copper
connectors.
In this step you will need the junction box cover and the
#10 Hex head screw from the screws set aside in Step 1.
• Secure house wiring to the back of the junction box with a
strain relief.
• Locate the 3 dishwasher wires, (white, black and green) with
the stripped ends coming out of the AC jumper. Use UL listed
wire nuts of appropriate size to connect incoming ground to
green, white to white and black to black.
• Install the junction box cover using #10 hex head screw.
Check to be sure that wires are not pinched under the cover.
• Make sure that the junction box cover is resting on the
mounting bracket.
