Electrical Requirements
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock
- Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
- Do not remove the ground prong.
- Do not use an adapter.
- Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
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.
Ensure 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 Details:
- Models rated from 7.3 to 9.6 kW at 240 V (5.4 to 7.4 kW at 208 V) require a separate 40 A circuit.
- Models rated at 4.8 kW and below at 240 V (3.6 kW and below at 208 V) require a separate 20 A circuit.
- A circuit breaker is recommended.
- Connect directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker box) through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper cable (with grounding wire). Refer to the "Make Electrical Connection" section in the Owner's Manual.
- 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.
Aluminum Wiring: 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 connections must conform with local codes and industry-accepted wiring practices.
