Installation Instructions

Installation of Conductor Cords

The cord must be U.L., (CSA where applicable) Listed
and meet NEC and Mobile Home Manufactures
Association Standards. The cord must be rated at 250 V,
40 amp, must be equipped with a plug configuration in
accordance with NEMA and all ending with closed loop
(ring) terminals at the range.
(Three conductor cord plug NEMA 10-50P).
(Four conductor cord plug NEMA 14-50P).
RS2320001 Rev. 2
When unpacking and moving the range into position take care not to slide it
across the floor. Improper handling of the range can cause damage to the
floor. Two people are required to move the range. Make sure the power is off
at the main circuit breaker before connecting wiring.

Only a power supply cord suitable for use with
ranges may be used. For installation in a mobile
home or area where local codes do not permit
grounding through the neutral, a 4-wire cord rated
250 V, 40 amp must be used.
Connector block is approved for copper wire
connection only, NOT aluminum wiring.

Aluminum Wiring

If aluminum house wiring is to be connected, the
following procedure is suggested.
1. Connect length of copper building wire to range
terminal block with ring terminal.
2. Splice copper wires to aluminum wiring using special
connectors designed and Underwriters Laboratories,
(CSA where applicable) recognized for joining
copper to aluminum and following the connector
manufactures recommended procedure.
3. Wire used, location and enclosure of splices, ect.,
must conform to good wiring practice and local
codes.

Installation of Three Conductor Cord

120/240 Volts Single Phase

1. Remove rear wire cover.
2. Place strain relief (winged clamp) which is supplied
in cord kit in cord access hole below terminal block.
This is done by placing wings through holes, entering
from bottom. Screw holes in clamp should be below
mounting panel. (Wings may be bent to allow both
wings through hole).
3. Place cord through strain relief. Attach cord neutral
(center) or white conductor to center terminal on
terminal block.
4. Attach black conductor to the terminal "left" of center
on the terminal block.
5. Attach red conductor to the terminal "right" of center
on the terminal block.
6. After conductors have been placed on the terminals
tighten down the hex nuts or screws, depending on
which terminal block is present. Firmly tighten to
insure proper electrical connection.
7. Place screws through strain relief and tighten.
8. Replace rear wire cover.
