ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Werecommendyouhavetheelectricalwiringandhookupoftheapplianceconnectedbyaqualified

electrician.Afterinstallation,havetheelectricianshowyouhowtodisconnectpowerfromtheappliance.

Youmustuseasingle-phase,120/208VACor120/240VAC,60Hertzelectricalsystem.

EffectiveJanuary1,1996,theNationalElectricalCoderequiresthatnewconstruction(notexisting)utilizea

four-conductorconnectiontoanelectricoven.Wheninstallinganelectricoveninnewconstruction,amobile

home,recreationalvehicleor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code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.

Ratingplateislocatedonovenfrontframeandisvisiblewhenovendoorisopen.

Thisappliancemustsuppliedbe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.

DO

NOTshortentheflexibleconduit.Theconduitstrainreliefclampmustbesecurelyattachedtothejunction

boxandtheflexibleconduitmustsecurelyattachedtotheclamp.Iftheflexibleconduitwillnotfitwithinthe

clamp,donotinstalltheovenuntilaclampofthepropersizeisobtained.

The3powerleadssuppliedwiththisappliancearesuitableforconnectiontoheaviergaugehousehold

wiring.Theinsulationofthese3leadsisratedfortemperaturesmuchhigherthanthetemperatureratingof

thehouseholdwiring.Thecurrent-carryingcapacityoftheconductorisgovernedbythewiregaugeandthe

temperatureratingoftheinsulationaroundthewire.
