Verify that wiring to house is adequate.
Contact your local utility company to verify that the present electric service to your
home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and ser-
vice switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the
range.
home is adequate. In some instances, the size of the wiring to the house and ser-
vice switch must be increased to handle the electrical load demanded by the
range.
Verify that wiring inside house is adequate.
Most wiring codes require a separate circuit with separate disconnect switch and
fuses either in the main entrance panel or in a separate switch and fuse box. Most
local building regulations and codes require that electrical wiring be done by
licensed electricians. Be sure to install your range according to the electric codes
in place in your region.

General Information
Ranges are dual rated for use on either 120/240 VAC or 120/208 VAC. See
Table 1, “Electrical Specifications,” on page 6 for power ratings and circuit breaker
sizes based upon the supply voltage for each model.
Table 1, “Electrical Specifications,” on page 6 for power ratings and circuit breaker
sizes based upon the supply voltage for each model.
We recommend that the range be installed with a UL approved power cord set
(not supplied). The electrical rating of the power cord set must be 120/240 volt, 50
amperes minimum. The power cord set shall be marked “For Use with Ranges.”
Always use a new power cord. Alternatively, the range can also be hard wired
using the terminal lugs included in the literature pack. If using this connection,
flexible conduit must also be used (not supplied).

We recommend a 50 AMP, 60 Hz, 4 wire circuit; However, the NEC (National
Electric Code) allows for some ranges to be installed on a 40 AMP circuit. Refer to
your local electric code requirements in order to determine the required amper-
age. Always choose a range power cord set that is rated for the circuit. In compli-
ance with the NEC, a separate circuit is also recommended.

Note:
In Canada, the range is shipped from the factory with the range cord
already installed.
