ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GAS DRYERS
Part 5
Grounding Method with Ground insert space Terminal
Earth wire should be connected.
If the earth wire is not connected, there is possible a danger of electric shock caused by the current leakage .
Grounding Method with Ground insert space Terminal
If the AC current outlet has a ground terminal, then separate grounding
is not required. Note that AC power outlet configurations may differ
from country to country.
Caution
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has
no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the spercification page of this owner's manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets.
Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dan-
gerous. Any of theseconditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance
indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by
an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord form physical or machanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, colsed in a door,
or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs. wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.
Other Grounding Method
Burying Copper Plate
Connect the Ground Wire to a Ground Copper Plate and bury it more
than 75cm in the ground.
Using Ground Wire
Connect the Ground Wire to a the socket provided
exclusively for grounding
Using a Short Circuit Breaker
If grounding methods described above are not possible, a separate cir-
cuit breaker should be employed and installed by a qualified electrician
Caution
• To prevent a possible explosion, do not connect ground to a gas pipe.
• Do not connect ground to telephone wires or lightning rods. This may be dangerous during electrical storms.
• Connecting ground to plastic has no effect.
• Ground wires should be connected when an extension cord is used.
