• Fryers must be properly grounded in
accordance with local code, or in the absence of local code, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 . Improper grounding may result in electrical shock to users. Check local
electrical code to ensure that proper grounding is utilized.
• Always consult a licensed electrician, or other qualified technician, prior to installation to ensure that the electrical
circuits to which the unit is to be connected are of sufficient rating to handle the appliance load.
• The
GBF fryer is manufactured for the various electrical specifications shown in Table 2.04 . Check the serial/data
label attached inside the cabinet or to the rear panel to determine the proper electrical service required. A banked
battery requires a separate power supply for each fryer unit .
