DIMENSION GUIDE

7 of 21

■

Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of

the range.

■

The Tech Sheet is located on the back of the range inside a

clear plastic bag.

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 the “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 V, 40 A or 50 A, 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.

4-wire receptacle (14-50R)

The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power cord

are:

40 A 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 V,

40 A or 50 A 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.

Electrical Requirements - Canada

Only

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that

the ground path is adequate and wire gauge are in accordance

with local codes.

Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate

and in conformance with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian

Electrical Code, Part 1 - latest edition, and all local codes and

ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure

the range is properly grounded.

This range is equipped with a CSA International Certified

Power Cord intended to be plugged into a standard 14-50R

wall receptacle. Be sure the wall receptacle is within reach of

range’s final location.

■

Do not use an extension cord.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground range.

Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.
