You may not ground the cooktop
through the neutral (white) wire if cooktop is used
in a new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC),
mobile home, recreational vehicle, or where local
codes do not permit grounding to the neutral
(white) wire.
If the cable from appliance is equipped with 3 wires:
When grounding to the neutral (white) wire is
prohibited, you must use a 4-wire power supply
cable. See Figure 4. Failure to heed this warning
may result in electrocution or other serious
personal injury.

WARNING
If connecting to a 4-wire power supply
cable electrical system, the appliance frame
connected ground wire MUST NOT be connected to
the neutral wire of the 4-wire electrical system.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads
suppliedwiththeapplianceareUL-listedforconnection
to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of
the leads is rated at temperatures much higher than
temperature rating of household wiring. The current
carryingcapacityoftheconductorwireisgovernedby
thetemperatureratingoftheinsulationaroundthewire,
rather than the wire gauge alone.
