The proper electrical connection
ensures a safe installation that
meets local code requirements.
A three-wire or four-wire, single
phase 120/240-volt, 60-Hz., AC-only,
electrical supply (or three-wire or
four-wire, 120/208-volt if specified on
serial/rating plate) is required on a.
separate 30-ampere circuit, fused on
both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse
or circuit breaker is recommended.
This laundry center is manufactured with
the 3-wire, frame-grounding conductor
connected to the NEUTRAL (center) of
the wiring harness of the terminal block.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or
grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral
or grounding circuit could result in an
electrical shock.
Use a 4-conductor cord when the laundry
center is installed in a mobile home or
an area where local codes do not permit
grounding through the neutral.
