a. Cut the neutral (White)
lead from the crimp. Re-
strip the neutral (white)
lead to expose the proper
length of conductor.
b. Attach the appliance grounding
lead (green or bare copper) in
accordance with local codes. If
the residence grounding
conductor is aluminum, see
WARNING note.
c. Connect the oven neutral (white) lead to the branch
circuit neutral (white or gray) in accordance with
local codes.
d. Connect the oven red lead to the branch circuit red
lead and the oven black lead to the branch circuit
black lead in accordance with local codes. If the
residence red, black or white leads are aluminum
conductors, see “ WARNING” note.
e. Install the Junctio Box Cover.
OR
THREE-CONDUCTOR BRANCH
CIRCUIT CONNECTION
When connecting to a 3-
conductor branch circuit, if
local codes permit:
a. Connect the bare oven
ground conductor with the
crimped neutral (white)
lead to the branch circuit
neutral (white or gray in
color).
b. The oven red lead to the
branch circuit red lead.
c. The oven black lead to the
branch circuit black lead
in accordance with local
codes.
d. Install Junction Box
Cover.

WARNING: Improper connection of
aluminum house wiring to copper leads can
result in an electrical hazard or fire. Use
only connectors designed for joining copper to
aluminum and follow the manufacturer’s
recommended procedure closely.
Do not shorten this flexible conduit. The conduit strain
relief clamp must be securely attached to the junction
box and the flexible conduit must be securely attached to
the clamp. If the flexible conduit will not fit within the
clamp, do not install the oven until a clamp of the proper
size is obtained.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN: The 3 power leads supplied with
this appliance are UL recognized for connection to larger
gauge household wiring. The insulation of these 3 leads is
rated at temperatures much higher than the temperature rating
of household wiring. The current carrying capacity of the
conductor is governed by the temperature rating of the
insulation around the wire, rather than the wire gauge alone.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Turn off the circuit breaker or remove fuses to the
oven branch circuit.
With the oven in front of the cabinet opening, on a
table or platform, connect the flexible conduit to the
electrical junction box as shown below. You will
need to purchase a strain relief clamp to complete
the connection of the conduit to the junction box.
