Electrical Requirements  
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is  
If connecting to a 4-wire system:  
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that  
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local  
codes.  
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the  
neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green ground  
wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected to the cabinet.  
See “Electrical Connection.”  
Do not use an extension cord.  
Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new  
branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC); mobile homes; and  
recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit  
grounding through the neutral conductor.  
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a  
matching UL listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range power  
supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains 4 copper  
conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade terminals with  
upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type 14-50P plug on the  
supply end.  
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate  
and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA  
70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.  
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:  
National Fire Protection Association  
One Batterymarch Park  
Quincy, MA 02269.  
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding  
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a  
qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as to  
whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the  
power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper  
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.  
The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green or  
green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white cover.  
Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a UL listed strain relief  
and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.  
Electrical Connection  
To properly install your range, you must determine the type of  
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions  
provided for it here.  
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage and  
frequency as specified on the model/serial number rating  
label. The model/serial number rating label is located on the  
bottom right front of the toe kick plate. Refer to the figures in  
the “Product Dimensions” section of the “Location  
Requirements” section.  
4-wire receptacle (14-50R)  
The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power  
cord are:  
40-amp circuit  
This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal  
connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL listed, 40- or  
50-amp power supply cord (pigtail) (see following Range  
Rating chart). If local codes do not permit ground through the  
neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated at 250 volts,  
40 or 50 amps and investigated for use with ranges.  
2 No.-8 conductors  
1 No.-10 white neutral  
1 No.-8 green grounding  
If connecting to a 3-wire system:  
Local codes may permit the use of a UL listed, 3-wire, 250-volt,  
40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail). This cord  
contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end  
spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type  
10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the appliance end  
must be provided at the point the power supply cord enters the  
appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.

nominal 1³⁄₈" (34.9 mm) diameter connection opening.  
3-wire receptacle (10-50R)  
A circuit breaker is recommended.  
The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker box  
(or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic sheathed,  
copper or aluminum cable. See “Electrical Connection.”  
Allow 2 to 3 ft (61.0 cm to 91.4 cm) of slack in the line so that  
the range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.  
A UL listed conduit connector must be provided at each end  
of the power supply cable (at the range and at the junction  
box).  
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of  
the range.  
The wiring diagram is located on the back of the range or  
inside the storage drawer in a clear plastic bag.
