This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency and amperage, which is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
WARNING
The cable from the appliance is equipped with 3-wire.
IMPORTANT: Use the 3-wire cable from Home Power Supply where local codes
permit a 3-wire connection.
Use the 4-wire cable from Home Power Supply where local codes do not allow
grounding through neutral.
Connecting to a 3-wire power OR 4-wire power supply cable electrical system:
- Disconnect the power supply.
- In the circuit breaker, fuse box, or junction box, connect appliance and power supply cable wires as shown below (3-wire, Figure 2; 4- wire, Figure 3).
- Circuit breaker fuse rating must be above 40 A, and wire should be 2/8 or 3/8 copper.
- Minimum acceptable size of conductors should be no less than law, copper only, and no less than 167°F.
- A wire-binding screw or stud used in the wire terminal should be 10 or larger.
