1. A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208
Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply is required on
a separate circuit fused on both sides of the line (red
and black wires). A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
is recommended. DO NOT fuse neutral (white wire).

2. These appliances should be connected to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible
armored or nonmetallic sheathed cable. The flexible
armored cable extending from the appliance should
be connected directly to the junction box. The
junction box should be located as shown in Figure
] or Figure 2 and with as much slack as possible
remaining in the cable between the box and the
appliance, so it can be moved if servicing is ever
necessary.
3. A suitable strain relief must be provided to attach
the flexible armored cable to the junction box.
Electrical Shock Hazard
° Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
° Do not connect to the electrical supply until
appliance is permanently grounded.
° Disconnect power to the junction box before making
the electrical connection.
° This appliance must be connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system, or a grounding
connector should be connected to the grounding
terminal or wire lead on the appliance.
• Do not use a gas supply line for grounding the
