ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
This appliance must be properly grounded.
WARNING
All new constructions, mobile homes, recreational vehicles and installations
where local codes do not allow grounding through neutral, require a 4-conductor UL-listed range
cord.
WARNING
To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
WARNING
To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning
installation.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your range connected by a qualified
electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the
range.
You must use a single-phase, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 hertz electrical system. If you
connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring
must be used.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing)
utilize a 4-conductor connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new
construction, mobile home, recreational vehicle, or an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven
according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes,
your oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 – latest
edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.
This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency, and connected to an
individual, properly grounded, 40 amp (minimum) branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or
time-delay fuse.
Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL-listed range cord. These cords may be provided with
ring terminals on wire and a strain relief device.
A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50 amp range

connection openings. Care should be taken to center the cable and strain relief within the knockout
hole to keep the edge from damaging the cable.
The rating plate is located on the oven frame or on the drawer frame.

POWER CORD AND CONDUIT INSTALLATION
A. Remove wire cover (on the back of range) by removing screws using a 1/4” nut driver. You can
access the terminal block by either removing a terminal block cover (on some models) or the
wire cover. Do not discard these screws.
B. For power cord and 1” conduit only, remove the
knockout ring (1
3
»8”) located on bracket directly below
the terminal block. To remove the knockout, use a
pair of pliers to bend the knockout ring away from the
bracket and twist until ring is removed.
C. For power cord installations only (see the next step if
using conduit), assemble the strain relief in the hole.
Insert the power cord through the strain relief and
tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the cord
terminals to the terminal block. If tabs are present
at the end of the winged strain relief, they can be
removed for better fit.
NOTE: Do not install the power cord without
a strain relief. The strain relief bracket MUST
be installed before reinstalling the rear range
wiring cover.
D. For 3/4” conduit installations only, purchase a
squeeze connector matching the diameter of
your conduit and assemble it in the hole. Insert
the conduit through the squeeze connector and
tighten. Allow enough slack to easily attach the
wires to the terminal block. NOTE: Do not install the conduit without a squeeze connector.
The squeeze connector MUST be installed before reinstalling the rear range wire or terminal
block cover.
E. Replace wire cover on range back and replace the screws removed earlier. Make sure that
no wires are pinched between cover and range back. Replace the terminal block cover if it was
removed.
