Step 5: Electrical
Requirements, Connection
and Grounding
WARNING:
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, personal
injury or death; verify electrical power is
turned off at the service panel and gas supply
is turned off until the rangetop is installed and
ready to operate.
CAUTION:
Improper grounding or reverse polarization will cause
malfunction (such as continuous sparking of the burner
igniters). This can damage the appliance and can create
a condition of shock hazard. If the dedicated circuit is not
correctly grounded and polarized, it is the responsibility
and obligation of the installer and user to have the
existing receptacle changed to a properly dedicated
grounded and polarized receptacle. This must be
accomplished in accordance with all applicable local
codes and ordinances by a qualified electrician. In the
absence of local codes and ordinances, the receptacle
replacement shall be in accordance with the National
Electric Code. (See Figure 11.)
•
Before installing, turn power OFF at the service panel.
Lock service panel to prevent power from being turned
ON accidentally.
•
Always disconnect appliance from the electric supply
either by disconnecting power cord or shutting off the
breaker at the service panel before servicing the
appliance.
•
Before you plug in an electrical cord, be sure all
controls are in the OFF position.
•
All 120 Volt rangetop models must be plugged into a
mating 3-Prong, Grounding-Type Receptacle. The
receptacle must be connected to a properly dedicated
grounded and polarized electrical power supply rated
at 120VAC, Single Phase, 60HZ. See "Electrical Power
Supply Over-current Protection Requirements" for
proper over-current protection requirements for each
model.
•
Observe all governing codes and ordinances when
grounding. In the absence of these codes or
ordinances observe National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA No. 70 current issue. See Figure 11 for
recommended grounding method.

•
An electrical wiring diagram and schematic have been
attached to the back of the rangetop chassis for access
by a qualified service technician. Do not remove or
discard this important information.
Grounding Method
The rangetop is factory equipped with a power supply cord
with a three-prong grounding plug (with polarized parallel
blades).
IT MUST BE PLUGGED INTO A MATING, GROUNDING
TYPE RECEPTACLE THAT IS CONNECTED TO A
CORRECTLY POLARIZED 120 VOLT DEDICATED
CIRCUIT (See Figure 11).
