Power Connections - Sharp Cooktop Installation Manual

POWER CONNECTIONS

This appliance is manufactured with a neutral (white) power supply
wire and a cabinet-connected green grounding wire.
Connect the appliance cable to the junction box through the UL-
listed conduit connector. Complete electrical connection according
to local codes and ordinances. For preferred junction box location,
see Figure 2, page 2.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads supplied
with this appliance are UL recognized for connection to larger
gauge household wiring. The installation of the leads is rated
at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of
household wiring. The current carrying capacity of the conductor
is governed by the temperature rating of the installation around
the wire, rather than the wire gauge alone.
Improper connection of aluminum house wiring
to copper leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use only
connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow
manufacturer's recommended procedure closely.
GENERAL NOTE FOR WIRE NUT APPLICATIONS:
The proper size wire nut shall be placed over the stripped
leads and the wire nut twisted until the wire nut can not be
pulled from the leads. No conductor shall be exposed in the
connection.
4-WIRE CONNECTION
When installing to a 4-wire electrical system, new construction,
mobile home and recreational vehicle or when local codes do not
permit grounding through neutral.
1 Disconnect the power supply.
2 In the junction box connect the appliance and residence cable

REINSTALL JUNCTION BOX COVER
Do not shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp
(supplied by installer) must be securely attached to the junction box
and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the clamp. If
the flexible conduit will not fit with the junction box, do not install
the appliance until a clamp of proper size has been obtained.
