if the cable from agpliance
is e_ed
with 3 wires:
Where local codes permit connecting
the
appliance-grounding
conductor to the neutral
(white) wire (see figure
3):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box,
connect appliance and power supply cable wires
as shown in figure 3.
You may not ground
the cooktop
through
the neutral
(white) wire if cooktop
is used
in a new branch circuit installation
(1996 NEC),
mobile home, recreational
vehicle, or where local
codes do not permit grounding
to the neutral

prohibited, you must use a 4-wire power supply
cable. See Figure 4. Failure to heed this warning
may result in electrocution

If connecting to a 4-wire power supply
cable electrical
system, the appliance
frame
connected ground wire MUST NOT be connected to
the neutral wire of the 4-wire electrical
system.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN:
The armored cable leads
supplied with the appliance are UL-listed for connection
to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of
the leads is rated at temperatures
much higher than
temperature
rating of household wiring. The current
carrying capacity of the conductor
wire is governed by
the temperature
rating of the insulation around the wire,
rather than the wire gauge alone.
