Four-wire insfallufion is recommended
(required for mobile homes): The power
supply cord must have four, No.-1 0
copper wires and match a four-wire
receptacle
of NEMA Type 14-30R (see
Figure 3). The fourth wire (grounding
conductor)
must be identified with a
green cover and the neutral conductor
by a white cover.
Three-wire installation (if a four-wire
system is not available):
The power
supply cord must have three, No.-1 0
copper wires to match a three-wire
receptacle
of NEMA Type 1 O-30R (see
Figure 4).
