ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM

When connecting an appliance that has an elec-
tronic ignition system to a 120-volt AC receptacle, it
is very important that the receptacle wiring is cor-
rectly polarized and properly grounded. If the plug is
not polarized properly, the ignitor module will not
operate correctly.
1. The 120-volt AC receptacle should use 3-
wires, and be polarized with two plug slots
and a round grounding pin. Proper wiring for
this type of receptacle is as follows:
a) The white wire is connected to the neutral
side of the plug.
b) The black wire is connected to the hot
(120-volt ac) side of the plug.
c) The green, or bare wire is connected to
the round grounding pin of the plug.
