here local codes allow the connection of ground wire from
t
he cooktop to the branch circuit neutral wire (gray or white
c
olored wire) proceed as follows.
1
. If local codes permit, connect the green GROUND wire
from the cooktop to the branch circuit neutral wire (gray or
white colored wire).
2
. Connect the red and black leads from the cooktop to the
corresponding leads in the junction box.

This appliance is manufactured with a green ground wire connected to the cooktop chassis. After making sure that the power
h
as been turned off, connect the flexible conduit from the cooktop to the junction box using a U.L. listed conduit connector. The
i
nstructions provided below present the most common way of connecting the cooktops. Your local codes and ordinances, of course,
t
ake precedence over these instructions. Complete electrical connections according to local codes and ordinances.
Risk of Electric Shock, frame grounded to neutral of appliance through a link.
Gro
unding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and
r
ecreational vehicles, or in an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor.
