A three-wire, single phase, 240 Volt 60 cycle electrical
system (properly circuit protected to meet Local Codes of
NFPA No.70) must be provided. Unit must be properly
grounded in accordance with local wiring code. The chart
below recommends the minimum circuit protector and wire
size if the appliance is the only unit on the circuit. If smaller
sizes of wire are used, the unit efficiency will be reduced
and a fire hazard may be created. It is advisable that the
electrical wiring and hookup be accomplished by a
competent electrician.
