30" ELECTRIC RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 6.2 Direct Electrical Connection to the Circuit Breaker, Fuse Box or Junction Box If the appliance is connected directly to the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box, use flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding wire). Supply a U.L. listed strain-relief at each end of the cable. At the appliance end, the cable goes through the Direct Connection Hole (see Figure 9) on the Cord Mounting Plate. Wire sizes (copper wire only) and connections must conform to the rating of the appliance. Where local codes permit connecting the appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral (white) wire (see Figure 10): 1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable from residence. 2. Follow instructions on previous page for Four Conductor Wire Connection to Range (Fig. 9). 3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box (Fig. 10): a) Connect the green (or bare copper) wire, the white appliance cable wire, and the neutral (white) wire together. b) Connect the 2 black wires together. c) Connect the 2 red wires together.

the Cord Mounting Plate. Wire sizes (copper wire only)
and connections must conform to the rating of the
appliance.
Where local codes permit connecting the
appliance-grounding conductor to the neutral
(white) wire (see Figure 10):
1. Be sure that no power is supplied on the cable from
residence.
2. Follow instructions on previous page for Four
Conductor Wire Connection to Range (Fig. 9).
3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box (Fig.
10):
a) Connect the green (or bare copper) wire, the
white appliance cable wire, and the neutral
(white) wire together.
b) Connect the 2 black wires together.
c) Connect the 2 red wires together.
