Direct Electrical Connection to the Circuit
Breaker, Fuse Box or Junction Box
If the appliance is connected directly to the circuit
breaker, fuse box or junction box, use flexible, armored
or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding
wire). Supply a U.L listed strain-relief at each end of
the cable. At the appliance end, the cable goes through
the Direct Connection Hole (see Figure 5) on the Cord
Mounting Plate. Wire sizes (copper wire only) and
connections must conform to the rating of the appliance.
Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire
(see Figure 6): (The 3-conductor cord or cable must be
replaced with a 4-conductor cord or cable where
grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited in
new installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles or
in other areas where local codes do not permit neutral
grounding)
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:
a) Connect the green (or bare copper) wire, the
white appliance cable wire, and the neutral
(white) wire together.
b) Connect the 2 black wires together.
c) Connect the 2 red wires together.
