NOTES: After you make the countertop cutout, some
installations may require notching down the base cabinet side
walls to clear the cooktop base. To avoid this modification, use a
base cabinet with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If the cabinet has a drawer, a 5¹⁄₈" (13 cm) depth clearance from
the countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in
the base cabinet is required.
Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Use 8 gauge copper wire.
Electrically ground cooktop.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
It is not recommended to have a fuse in the neutral or ground
circuit.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
CSA International
178 Rexdale Boulevard
Toronto, Ontario
Canada M9W 1R3
Before You Make the Electrical Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only
electrical supply is required on a separate circuit, fused on
both sides of the line.
The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box
through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper
cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse
box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the
junction box.
