ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: The cooktop must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code,
CSA C22.1.
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.
■ A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is
required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It
is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this cooktop be
provided.
CABINET REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood combination
above the range, follow the range hood or microwave hood combination
installation instructions for dimensional clearances above the cooktop
surface.
NOTES: After making the countertop cutout, some installations may
require notching down the base cabinet side walls to clear the burner
box. To avoid this modification, use a base cabinet with sidewalls wider
than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 4" (10.2 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base cabinet
is required. The drawer depth may need to be shortened to avoid
interfering with the regulator.
