ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (cont.) ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Connect the flexible armored cable that extends from the surface unit to the junction box using a suitable strain relief at the point the armored cable enters the junction box. Then make the electrical connection as follows. Electrical ground is required on this appliance. This appliance is manufactured with a supply wire and a frame connected green or bare copper grounding wire. NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The armored cable leads supplied with the appliance are UL-listed for connection to larger gauge household wiring. The insulation of the leads is rated at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating of household wiring. The current-carrying capacity of the conductor wire is governed by the temperature rating of the insulation around the wire, rather than the wire gauge alone. WARNING DO NOT ground to a gas supply pipe. DO NOT connect to electrical power supply until appliance is permanently grounded. Connect the ground wire before turning on the power. WARNING This appliance is equipped with a copper conductor flexible cable. If connection is made to aluminum house wiring, use only special connectors which are approved for joining copper and aluminum wires in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. Improper connection of aluminum house wiring to copper leads can result in a short circuit or fire. Follow the connector manufacturer's recommended procedure closely. WHERE LOCAL CODES PERMIT CONNECTING THE APPLIANCE-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR TO THE NEUTRAL (WHITE) WIRE Observe all governing codes and local ordinances. ᕡ Disconnect the power supply. 3-WIRE GROUNDED JUNCTION BOX Cable from power supply ᕢ At the circuit breaker box, fuse box or junction box, connect appliance and power supply cable wires as shown. WARNING You may not ground the cooktop through the neutral (white) wire if cooktop is used in a new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational vehicle, or where local codes do not permit grounding to the neutral (white) wire. When grounding to the neutral (white) wire is prohibited, you must use a 4-wire power supply cable. Failure to heed this warning may result in electrocution or other serious personal injury.
