Electrical Requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and the wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
oven is properly grounded.
This oven must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition or CSA Standards C22.
1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No.
O-M91 — latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

Electrical Connection
To properly install your oven, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
■ Oven must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and
frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating plate. The
model/serial/rating plate is located under the control panel
on single ovens and under the control panel on the upper
oven cavity on double ovens. See the following illustrations.
■ Models rated from 7.3 to 9.6 kW at 240 volts (6.3 to 8.3 kW
at 208 volts) require a separate 40-amp circuit. Models
rated from 4.9 to 7.2 kW at 240 volts (4.3 to 6.2 kW at
208 volts) require a separate 30-amp circuit. Models rated at
4.8 kW and below at 240 volts (4.2 kW and below at
208 volts) require a separate 20-amp circuit.
■ A circuit breaker is recommended.
■ Connect directly to the circuit breaker box (or fused
disconnect) through flexible, armored, or nonmetallic
sheathed, copper cable (with grounding wire). See the “Make
Electrical Connection” section.
■ Flexible conduit from the oven should be connected directly
to the junction box.
■ Fuse both sides of the line.
■ Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the oven.
■ A UL Listed or CSA Approved conduit connector must be
provided.
■ If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure
below:
Connect the aluminum wiring using special connectors
and/or tools designed and UL Listed for joining copper to
aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer’s recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
