Installation Instructions ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 19 MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Effective January 1, 1996, the National Electrical Code requires that new, but not existing, construction utilize a four-conductor connection to an electric range. When installing an electric range in new construction, follow the instructions in NEW CONSTRUCTION AND FOURCONDUCTOR BRANCH CIRCUIT CONNECTION. You must use a three-wire, single-phase AC 208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical system with separate ground. If you connect to aluminum wiring, properly installed connectors approved for use with aluminum wiring must be used.
