Power
Supply Cord Kit
The user is responsible for connecting
the power supply
cord to the connection
block located behind the back
panel access
cover.
This appliance
may
be connected
by means
of
permanent
"hard
wiring"
(flexible
armored
or
nonmetallic
shielded
copper cable), or by means of a
power supply cord kit.
Only a power supply cord kit
rated
at 125/250
volts
minimum,
40 amperes
and
marked for use with ranges shall be used. Cord must
have 3 conductors (see Figures 1 and 5).
Mobile homes, new installations,
recreational
vehicles,
or areas where
local codes do not permit
grounding
through
neutral,
a 4 conductor
power supply cord kit
rated
at 125/250
volts
minimum,
40 amperes
and
marked for use with ranges should be used (see Figures
2 and 6).
Terminals on ends of wires must either be closed loop or
open-end
spade lugs with upturned
ends. Cord must
have strain relief clamp.
Risk of fire or electrical
shock may be
incurred if an incorrect size range cord kit is used,
the Installation
Instructions
are not followed,
or
the strain relief bracket
is discarded.

If Connecting
to a 4-Wire
System
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to
the cabinet. The ground
must be revised so the green
ground
wire
of the
4-wire
power
supply
cord
is
connected
to the cabinet.
See "Four Conductor
Wire
Connection to Range" on page 4.
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used
(see Figure 1), a matching
U.L.-listed, 4-wire, 250 volt,
40 ampere range power supply cord (pigtail)
must be
used. This cord contains 4 copper conductors
with ring
terminals at the appliance end, terminating
in a NEMA
Type 14-50P plug on the supply end. The fourth (ground)
conductor
must be identified by a green or green/yellow
cover and the neutral conductor
by a white cover. Cord
should be Type SRD or SRDT with a U.L.-listed
strain
relief and be at least 4 feet long.
The minimum
conductor
sizes for the copper
4-wire
power cord are:
40 ampere circuit
2 No. 8 conductors
1 No. 10 white neutral
1 No. 8 green ground

Electrical
Connection
to the

This appliance is manufactured
with the neutral terminal
connected to the frame.

Three Conductor
Wire Connection to Range
(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 mew
installations,
mobile homes, recreational vehicles or
in other
areas where
local codes do not permit
neutral grounding.)
If local
codes permit
connection
of the frame
grounding
conductor
to the neutral
wire of the
copper power
supply cord (see Figure 4).
A.
Remove the 3 screws at the lower end of the
rear wire cover, then raise the lower end of the
rear wire cover (access cover) upward to expose
range terminal connection
block (see Figure 3).
