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 non metallic 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 (seefigure 4) 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 5).(The 3-conductor cord or cable must be replaced with a 4-conductor cord or cable where grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited in new installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles or in other areas where local codes do not permit neutral grounding) 1.

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 (seefigure 4) on the Cord Mounting
Plate. Wire sizes (copper
wire
only)
and connections must
conform to the rating of the appliance.

cord or cable must be
replaced with a 4-conductor
cord or cable where
grounding
through
the neutral conductor
is prohibited
in
new installations,
mobile
homes, recreational
vehicles or
in other areas where
local codes do not permit neutral
grounding)
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the circuit

cable wire, and the neutral (white)
wire
together.
b) Connect the 2 black wires together.
c) Connect the 2 red wires together.
