If connecting
to a 4-wire system:
This range is manufactured
with the ground connected to the
neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green
ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the
cabinet. See "Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only" section.
Grounding through the neutral conductor
is prohibited for new
branch-circuit
installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and
recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor.
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a
matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range power
supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper
conductors
with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with
upturned ends, terminating
in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the
supply end.
The fourth (grounding) 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 UL listed strain relief
and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.
Electrical
Connection
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
•
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage
and frequency as specified on the model/serial rating plate.
The model/serial rating plate is located behind the control
panel. Refer to the figures in "Product Dimensions" in the
"Location Requirements"
section.
•
This range is manufactured
with the neutral terminal
connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or 50-
amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see the following Range
Rating chart). If local codes do not permit ground through the
neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts,
40- or 50-amps and investigated for use with ranges.

The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power
cord are:
40-amp circuit
2 No.-8 conductors
1 No.-10 white neutral
1 No.-8 green grounding
If connecting
to a 3-wire system:
Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250-volt,
40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord
contains 3 copper conductors
with ring terminals or open-end
spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating
in a NEMA Type
10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end
must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the
appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.
*The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected
load
listed on the model/serial
rating plate.
**If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord with
kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use with a
nominal 13/8"(34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.
•
A circuit breaker is recommended.
•
The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker
box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic
sheathed, copper or aluminum cable. See the "Electrical
Connection
- U.S.A. Only" section.
•
Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that
the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.
•
A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end
of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction
box).
•
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of
the range.
•
The wiring diagram is located on the Tech Sheet.
•
The Tech Sheet is located on the back of the range inside a
clear plastic bag.
