Locate the copper ground strap on the
lower back of the range.
Loosen the upper center screw on the
terminal block.
Slide the open slotted end of the ground
strap under the upper center screw on the
terminal block. Make sure the ground strap
is all the way against the upper center screw
and tighten it in place.
Place the ground plate (removed earlier)
over the bottom of the ground strap, press
them against the range frame and attach
them with the ground screw (removed
earlier).
Remove the strain relief clamp from the
bracket.
Assemble the squeeze connector (obtained
locally), matching the diameter of your
conduit, in the bracket hole. Insert the
conduit through the squeeze connector.
Allow enough slack to easily attach the wires
to the terminal block.
NOTE:
Do not install the conduit without a
squeeze connector.
Insert the center bare wire (white/neutral)
tip through the bottom center terminal
block opening. On certain models, the wire
will need to be inserted through the ground
strap opening and then into the bottom
center block opening. Insert the two side
bare wire tips into the lower left and the
lower right terminal block openings.
Tighten the screws until the wire is firmly
secure (approximately 20 inch-lbs.).
NOTE:
Make sure the wire is completely
inserted into the terminal block and a
secure connection is made.
Secure the squeeze connector in place in
the bracket by tightening the squeeze
connector screws.
NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING:
Aluminum building wire may be used but it must
be rated for the correct amperage and voltage to
make connection.
Replace the Power Cord (Optional) Continued
3-Wire Conduit Installation Option
