ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.
WARNING: To prevent fire or shock, do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
WARNING: To prevent shock, remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.
WARNING: Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use only connectors designed for joining copper to aluminum and follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedure closely.
We recommend you have the electrical wiring and hookup of your appliance connected by a qualified electrician. After installation, have the electrician show you how to disconnect power from the appliance.
You must use a single-phase, 120/208 VAC or 120/240 VAC, 60 Hertz electrical system. If you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new construction (not existing) utilize a four-conductor connection to an electric oven. When installing an electric oven in new construction, a mobile home, recreational vehicle or an area where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor, refer to the section on four-conductor branch circuit connections.
Check with your local utilities for electrical codes which apply in your area. Failure to wire your oven according to governing codes could result in a hazardous condition. If there are no local codes, your oven must be wired and fused to meet the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70 — latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS (CONT)

This appliance must be supplied with the proper voltage and frequency and connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit, protected by a circuit breaker or fuse. See the rating plate located on the oven frame to determine the rating of the product.

NOTE: Rating plate is located on oven side trim, side front frame or lower front frame.
Use the chart below to determine the minimum recommended dedicated circuit protection:

KW Rating 240V| KW Rating 208V| Recommended Circuit Size
(Dedicated)
---|---|---
54.8 KW| 54.1 KW| 20 Amp
4.9 KW-7.2 KW| 4.2 KW-6.2 KW| 30 Amp
7.3 KW-9.6 KW| 6.3 KW-8.3 KW| 40 Amp
9.7 KW-12.0 KW| 8.4 KW-10.4 KW| 50 Amp

DO NOT shorten the flexible conduit. The conduit strain relief clamp must be securely attached to the junction box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to the clamp. If the flexible conduit will not fit within the clamp, do not install the oven until a clamp of the proper size is obtained.

The 3 power leads supplied with this appliance are suitable for connection to heavier gauge household wiring. The insulation of these 3 leads is rated for temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of the household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor is governed by the wire gauge and the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire.

MAKE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING
Switch power off at the service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel. Place oven on table or platform even with the cutout opening. Connect the flexible conduit to the electrical junction box as shown*. Position the conduit in such a manner that it will lie behind the unit in a natural loop when the oven is installed. You will need to purchase an appropriate strain relief clamp to complete the connection of the conduit to the junction box.![GE APPLIANCES Inch Built-In Twin Flex Convection
