ELECTRIC WALL OVEN INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(If your appliance is equipped with a

white neutral conductor.)

This appliance is manufactured with a white neutral

power supply and a frame connected copper wire.

The frame is grounded by connection of grounding

lead to neutral lead at the termination of the

conduit, if used in USA, in a new branch circuit

installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational

vehicles, where local code do not permit grounding

trough the neutral (white) wire or in Canada,

disconnect the white and green lead from each

other and use ground lead to ground unit in

accordance with local codes, connect neutral lead

to branch circuit-neutral conductor in usual manner

see Figure 6. If your appliance is to be connected

to a 3 wire grounded junction box (US only),

where local code permit connecting the appliance-

grounding conductor to the neutral (white) see

Figure 5.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads
supplied with the appliance are UL-recognized for
connection to larger gauge household wiring. The
insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much
higher than temperature rating of household wiring. The
current carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by
the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire,
rather than the wire gauge alone.

Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-
grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire
(US Only) (see figure 5):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as

shown in Figure 5.

If oven is used in a new branch circuit installation
(1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational vehicle,
or where local codes DO NOT permit grounding
through the neutral (white) wire, the appliance
frame MUST NOT be connected to the neutral wire
of the 4-wire electrical system. (see figure 6):

1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Separate the green (or bare copper) and white

appliance cable wires.

3. In the junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires as

shown in Figure 6.
