Installation Preparation–Electrical Supply

PREPARE ELECTRICAL WIRING

#282 French

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY:
Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker
before beginning installation. Do not use
an extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance.

#282 French

The improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service representative if you
are in doubt that the appliance is properly
grounded.

For models equipped with power cord:

Do not modify the plug

provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.

Cabinet Preparation and Wire Routing

• The wiring may enter the opening from either side, rear or

the ﬂ oor within the shaded area dimensioned in Figure A and
illustrated above.

• Cut a 1-1/2" max. diameter hole to admit the electrical cable.

Cable direct connections may pass through the same hole
as the drain hose and hot water line, if convenient. If cabinet
wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing.

Note:

Power cords with plug must pass through a separate

hole.

Electrical Connection to Dishwasher

Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher.
• For cable direct connections the cable must be routed as

shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of 24" from
the rear wall.

• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding

type receptacle in the adjacent cabinet rear wall, 6" min.
or 18" max. from the opening, 6" to 18" above the ﬂ oor. The
receptacle must be accessible and therefore cannot be
installed in the back wall of the dishwasher enclosure.
