F. ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
1. Electrical Requirements
It is your responsibility to have
ALL
electrical connections made by a properly licensed and competent
electrician to ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and conforms with local and state regulations
or codes. In the absence of such codes,
ALL
electrical connections, materials, and workmanship
must
conform
to the applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST
EDITION, or in Canada, the Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION.
IMPORTANT:
Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/or the requirements stipulated
in this manual, can result in personal injury or component failure.
NOTE:
Component failure due to improper installation will VOID THE WARRANTY.
It is recommended that a separate circuit servicing each basket (tumbler) be provided. The dryer
must be
connected to copper wire ONLY.
DO NOT
use aluminum wire, which could cause a fire hazard.
NOTE:
The use of aluminum wire will VOID THE WARRANTY.
2. Electrical Connections
A wiring diagram is included with each dryer showing the wiring connection sequence. The electrical
connections are made in a box located at the top of the dryer. The dryer is shipped with three (3) connection
points (L1, L2/Neutral, and Ground) for each basket (tumbler).
If local codes permit, power to the dryer can be made by use of a flexible U.L. listed power cord/pigtail
(wire size
must conform
to rating of dryer), or the dryer can be hard wired directly to the service breaker
panel. In both cases, a strain relief
must be
installed where the wiring enters the dryer.
NOTE: It is recommended
that a circuit servicing each basket (tumbler/drum) be provided.
