4-WIre ConneCtIon InstruCtIons

Before wiring the range, review the suggested power source location 

drawing in Figure 2. If connecting to a 4-wire electrical system for a 

new branch-circuit or mobile home use a 4-wire connection.

    

Follow the power supply cord kit manufacturer’s Installation 

Instructions and install the strain relief clamp on the cord. See 

Figure 8.

    

Connect the end connectors for line 1, line 2 and neutral and 

tighten securely to the terminal block. See Figure 9.

   

IMportant

 DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut 

connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal 

block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may 

occur if these 3 nuts are loosened or removed.

    

You must disconnect the ground strap. Remove the factory 

installed ground screw and plate to release the copper ground 

strap from the frame of the range. Cut and discard the copper 

ground strap and plate. KEEP the ground screw. See Figure 9.

    

Connect the green ground wire lead with the eyelet to the frame 

of the range with the ground screw using the same hole in the 

frame where the ground screw was originally installed. See 

Figure 9.

    

Make sure all screws are tightened securely and replace the 

rear access cover and secure with screw. See Figure 7.

3-WIre ConneCtIon InstruCtIons   

 

For existing installations ONLY, refer to Figure 10.

    

Follow the power supply cord kit manufacturer’s Installation 

Instructions and install the strain relief clamp. See Figure 10.

    

Connect the end connectors for line 1, line 2 and neutral and 

tighten securely to the terminal block. See Figure 10.

   

IMportant

 DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut 

connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal 

block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may 

occur if these 3 nuts are loosened or removed.

    

A ground strap is installed on this range which connects the 

center terminal of the neutral terminal block to the range 

chassis. The ground strap is connected to the range by the 

center, lowest screw. See Figure 10.  The ground strap must 

not be removed unless National, State or Local Codes do not 

permit use of a ground strap.

   

note:

 If the ground strap is removed for any reason, a 

separate ground wire must be connected to the separate ground 

screw attached to the range chassis and to an adequate ground 

source.

    

Make sure all connections are tightened securely and replace 

the rear access cover and secure with screw. See Figure 7.

3–wire permanent connection – follow steps 1, 2 and 5 below.  

4–wire permanent connection – follow all steps below.

Before wiring the range, review the suggested power source location 

drawings in Figure 2. If connecting to a 4-wire electrical system:

    

Follow the manufacturer’s Installation Instructions for installing 

the strain relief clamp.

    

Strip insulation away from the ends of the permanent wiring 

for line 1, line 2 and neutral; also strip ground wire on 4-wire 

connections. Tighten all 3 or 4-wire leads to the terminal block.  

Follow wire locations shown in Figure 11.

   

IMportant

 DO NOT LOOSEN the factory installed nut 

connections which secure the range wiring to the terminal 

block. Electrical failure or loss of electrical connection may 

occur if these 3 nuts are loosened or removed.  

   

note:

 For 3-wire permanent connection skip steps 3 and 4 

and continue with step 5.

    

Disconnect the ground strap. Remove the factory installed 

ground screw and plate to release the factory installed copper 

ground strap from frame of the range. Cut and discard the 

copper strap from the terminal block. KEEP the ground screw, 

ground plate and go to step 4.

    

Connect the green ground wire lead to the frame of the range 

using the ground screw and plate as shown in Figure 12. Be sure 

to install using the same hole in the frame where the ground 

screw was originally installed.

    

Make sure all connections are tightened securely and replace 

the rear access cover. See Figure 7.

   

note:

 

Non-terminated field wire compression connections 

must be set at approximately 90 in./lb.
