Power supply cord 3-wire receptacle (NEMA Type 10-30R): Go to "3-Wire Power Supply Cord Connection." Then, go to "Venting Requirements." 4-wire direct connection: Go to "Direct Wire Strain Relief," then "4-Wire Direct Wire Connection," then, go to "Venting Requirements." 3-wire direct connection: Go to "Direct Wire Strain Relief", then "3-Wire Direct Wire Connection," then, go to "Venting Requirements." NOTE: If local codes do not permit connection of a cabinetground conductor to neutral wire, go to "Optional 3-wire Connection." This connection may be used with either a power supply cord or a direct wire connection. Power Supply Cord Connection Power Supply Cord Strain Relief 1. Attach power supply cord strain relief 2.

Choose electrical connection type
Power supply cord 4-wire receptacle
(NEMA Type 14-30R):
Go to “4-Wire Power
Supply Cord Connection.” Then, go to
“Venting Requirements.”
Power supply cord 3-wire receptacle
(NEMA Type 10-30R):
Go to “3-Wire Power
Supply Cord Connection.” Then, go to
“Venting Requirements.”
4-wire direct connection:
Go to “Direct Wire
Strain Relief,” then “4-Wire Direct Wire
Connection,” then, go to “Venting
Requirements.”
3-wire direct connection:
Go to “Direct Wire
Strain Relief”, then “3-Wire Direct Wire
Connection,” then, go to “Venting
Requirements.”
NOTE:
If local codes do not permit connection of a cabinet-
ground conductor to neutral wire, go to “Optional 3-wire
Connection.” This connection may be used with either a
power supply cord or a direct wire connection.
Power Supply Cord Connection
Power Supply Cord Strain Relief
1.
Attach power supply cord strain relief
Remove the screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL-listed strain relief
(UL marking on strain relief). Put the tabs of the two clamp
sections (C) into the hole below the terminal block opening
(B) so that one tab is pointing up (A) and the other is pointing
down (D), and hold in place. Tighten strain relief screws just
enough to hold the two clamp sections (C) together.
2.
Attach power supply cord to strain relief
Put power supply cord through the strain relief. Be sure that
the wire insulation on the power supply cord is inside the
strain relief. The strain relief should have a tight fit with the
dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Do not further
tighten strain relief screws at this point.
4-Wire Power Supply Cord Connection
IMPORTANT:
A 4-wire connection is required for mobile homes
and where local codes do not permit the use of 3-wire
connections.
A.
4-wire receptacle (NEMA type 14-30R)
B.
4-prong plug
C.
Ground prong
D.
Neutral prong
E.
Spade terminals with upturned ends
F.
3/4" (19 mm) UL-listed strain relief
G. Ring terminals
3.
Prepare to connect neutral ground wire and
neutral wire
Remove center terminal block screw (B). Remove neutral
ground wire (E) from green external ground conductor screw
(A).
