Direct wire strain relief:
Fire Hazard
Use 10 gauge solid copper wire.
Use a UL listed strain relief.
Disconnect power before making electrical connections.
Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center
terminal
(silver).
Ground wire (green or bare wire) must be connected to
green ground connector.
Connect remaining 2 supply wires to remaining
2 terminals
(gold).
Securely tighten
all electrical connections.
Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
5, Attach direct
wire cable
to strain
relief
Put direct wire cable through strain relief. Strain relief should
be a tight fit with dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position.
Tighten strain relief screw against direct wire cable. Continue
with step 6.

4, Attach direct
wire strain relief
Unscrew removable conduit connector and any screws from
a 3/4" (19 mm) UL listed strain relief (UL marking on strain relief).
Put threaded section of strain relief through hole below terminal
block opening, screw removable conduit connector onto strain
relief threads.
6, Choose
electrical
connection
type
Power supply cord 4-wire receptacle
(NEMA Type 14-30R):
Follow steps 7=10.
Then, go to Venting Requirements.
Power supply cord 3=wire receptacle
(NEMA Type 10-30R}:
Follow steps 11-13.
Then go to Venting Requirements.
4-wire direct connection:
Follow steps 14-17.
Then go to Venting Requirements.
3-wire direct connection:
Follow steps 18=20.
Then go to Venting Requirements.
IMPORTANT:
A 4-wire connection is required for mobile
homes and where local codes do not permit 3-wire connections.
Use 3-wire connections where local codes permit connecting
cabinet-ground
conductor to neutral wire.
NOTE:
If local codes do not permit connection of a cabinet-
ground conductor to neutral wire, go to "Optional 3-wire
connection"
and follow steps 21-23. This connection may be
used with either a power supply cord or a direct wire connection.
