Making the Gas/Electric Connection GasandElectricaSl upplyRequirements The correct voltage, frequency and amperage must be supplied to the appliance from an isolated, grounded circuit which is protected by a properly sized circuit breaker or time-delay fuse. The cooktop must be connected to the power supply with copper wire only. The use of aluminum wire may result in unsatisfactory connections. Flexible armored or nonmetallic, sheathed copper cable (with a grounding wire) should be used to supply electrical power to the junction box or receptacle. The cooktop's factory-equipped, three-prong grounding plug must be inserted into a mating grounding-type receptacle in accordance with National Electric Code and applicable state, municipal and local codes. Be certain to locate the junction box or electrical outlet so the electrical supply may be easily disconnected in the event that service becomes necessary. Also, provide extra slack in the cable to allow the cooktop to be removed for servicing.
