b. Electric Models ONLY
For electric models made to operate at 208 VAC, 230/240 VAC, the electrical input connection is made
into the terminal block located at the upper rear area of the dryer.  For electric models made to operate
at 380 VAC, 416 VAC, 440 VAC, or 480 VAC, the electrical input connection is made to the oven relay
located at the upper rear area of the dryer.  Input connection wiring must be sized properly to handle the
dryer’s current draw.  This information is printed on the dryer’s data label.
NOTE: A CIRCUIT SERVICING EACH DRYER MUST BE PROVIDED.
4. Grounding
A ground (earth) connection must be provided and installed in accordance with state and local codes.  In
the absence of these codes, grounding must conform to applicable requirements of the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable
Canada Standards: Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION.  The
ground connection may be to a proven earth ground at the location service panel.
NOTE: A grounding connection (terminal lug) is provided in the dryer’s electrical service and relay box
at the rear upper left hand corner of the dryer.
For added personal safety, when possible, it is suggested that a separate ground wire (size per local codes)
be connected from the ground connection of the dryer to a grounded cold water pipe.  DO NOT ground to
a gas or hot water pipe.
  The grounded cold water pipe must have metal to metal connections ALL the
way to electrical ground.  If there are any nonmetallic interruptions, such as a meter, pump, plastic, rubber,
or other insulating connectors, they must be jumped out with a wire (size per local codes) and securely
clamped to bare metal at both ends.
IMPORTANT: For personal safety and proper operation, the dryer must be grounded.  For proper
operation of the microprocessor controller (computer), an earth (zero) ground is
required.
NOTE: Grounding via metallic electrical conduit (pipe) is not recommended.
G.  GAS INFORMATION
It is your responsibility to have ALL plumbing connections made by a qualified professional to ensure that the gas
plumbing installation is adequate and conforms to local and state regulations or codes.  In the absence of such
codes, ALL plumbing connections, materials, and workmanship must conform to the applicable requirements of
the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the Canadian Installation Codes
CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST
EDITION.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/or the requirements stipulated
in this manual, can result in personal injury and improper operation of the dryer.
The dryer and its individual shutoff valves must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).  The dryer must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test of the gas
supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
