Connecting the three-wire range cord (alternate
method)
The four-wire connection (above) is preferred, but where
local codes and ordinances permit grounding through
the neutral and where conversion to four-wire is
impractical, the unit can be connected to the power
supply via a three-wire connection.
1.
Disconnect the electrical power at the breaker box.
Remove the terminal block cover to expose the
terminal block.
2.
If you need a lager hole for the strain relief (not
provided with range) remove the metal plate. Rotate it
180° to have the lager hole for the power supply cable
and mount it again.
3.
Insert the power supply cable into the terminal block
through the bottom hole.
4.
Mount strain relief (not provided with range) through
the hole of the metal plate in the back panel located
below the terminal block and secure tightly. Route the
wires of the power supply cable through the strain
relief and tighten clamp.
Note:
Make sure the strain relief is secured properly.
5.
Insert the flat washer.
6.
Attach the red wire to the left junction block terminal
using one of the hexagonal nuts.
7.
Attach the white wire to the center junction block
terminal using one of the hexagonal nuts.
8.
Attach the black wire to the right junction block
terminal using one of the hexagonal nuts.
9.
Tighten all connections securely and replace terminal
block cover.
Note:
Do not plug in the range at this time.
Connecting the four-wire flexible conduit
1.
Disconnect the electrical power at the breaker box.
Remove the terminal block cover to expose the
terminal block.
2.
Insert the power supply cable into the terminal block
through the bottom hole.
3.
Remove the grounding strap from the center post on
the terminal block. Therefore remove the hexagonal
nut of the neutral pin. Remove the fork type connector
of the groundling link. Mount the hexagonal nut on the
neutral pin again. Remove the green hexagonal screw
and the ring connector from the grounding. The strap
will not be needed. Remove it from the unit.
