Part 5 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRIC DRYERS Review the following options to determine the appropriate electrical connection for your home: 4-wire receptacle (NEMA type14-30R) Use the instructions at this section if your home has a 4-wire receptacle (NEMA type 14-30R) and you will be using a UL listed, 120/240 volt minimum, 30 amp, dryer power supply cord. 3-wire receptacle (NEMA type10-30R) Use the instructions at this section if your home has a 3-wire receptacle (NEMA type 10-30R) and you will be using a UL listed, 120/240 volt minimum, 30 amp, dryer power supply cord. 4-wire connection : Direct wire Important : Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations, (2) mobile homes, and (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductor. Prepare minimum 5ft(1.52m) of length in order for dryer to be replaced. First, peel 5 inch (12.7cm) of covering material from end. Make a 5 inch of ground wire bared. After cutting 11/2 inch (3.8cm) from 3 other wires. peel insulation back 1inch (2.5cm). Make ends of 3 wires a hook shape. 4-wire direct If this type is available at your home. you will be connecting to a fused disconnect or circuit breaker box Then, put the hooked shape end of the wire under the screw of the terminal block(hooked end facing rightward) and pinch the hook together and screw tightly. 3-wire direct If this type is available at your home. you will be connecting to a fused disconnect or circuit breaker box Note • Screw power supply wire to the terminal block. Colored wire should be connected to same color screw. Wire color indicated on manual is connected to the same color screw in block. Otherwise, excessive current is applied resulting in damages on product and heating failure. • Appropriate screwing is essential. Imcomplete screwing also may cause loose connection or unscrewing because of excessive screw abrasion. • Loose screwing may cause connection error, which result in death, fire or serious injury. 1. Connect neutral wire(white) of power cord to center terminal block screw. 2. Connect red and black wire to the left and right terminal block screws. 3. Connect ground wire(green) of power cord to external ground screw and move neutral ground wire of appliance and connect it to center screw. 4. Make sure that the strain relief screw is tightened. and be sure that all terminal block nuts are on tight and power cord is in right position. 15
