Flush Installation Dimensions
All cooktops can be mounted with a frameless standard
installation sitting on top of the countertop surface or flush
with the top of the countertop. If the cooktop is to be mounted
flush with the countertop, an 11/64" (4.3 mm) - deep recessed
area surrounding the cooktop cutout must be provided with
the following dimensions.
NOTE: This option is not recommended for countertops with
a molded backsplash. Do not silicone seal in place.
Electrical Requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Before You Make the Electrical Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
Use a 3-wire or 4-wire, single phase, 120/208 V or 120/240 V,
60 Hz, AC only. The model/serial number rating plate is located
on the metal cabinet underneath the cooktop.
See the following illustration.
■
The cooktop is rated for 120/208 V or 120/240 V. Some
models have a neutral (white) wire.
For power requirements, refer to the following table:
Family Model
Number
Electrical Ratings at 60 Hz
208 V~
240 V~
JEC3430H 6.4 kW 8.5 kW
JEC3536H 7.9 kW 10.5 kW
JEC4424H 5.5kW 7.3 kW
JEC4430H 7.2 kW 9.6 kW
JEC4536H 7.2 kW 9.6 kW
■
The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction
box through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed,
copper cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the
fuse box or circuit breaker box should be connected directly
to the junction box.
■
Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible
between the junction box and the cooktop so that the
cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in
the future.
■
Do not cut the conduit. Use the length of conduit provided.
■
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the
cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector
is already provided at the cooktop.
■
If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure
below:
Connect the aluminum wiring using special connectors
and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to
aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer’s recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
