A range cord rated at 40 amps with 125/250 minimum volt range is required. A 50
amp range cord is not recommended but if used, it should be marked for use with
nominal 1
3
⁄
8
” diameter connection openings. Care should be taken to center the
cable and strain relief within the knockout hole to keep the edge from damaging the
cable.
• Because range terminals are not accessible after the range is in position, a flexible
service conduit or cord must be used.
NOTE
If conduit is being used, go to Step 4 on page 12.
ALL NEW BRANCH-CIRCUIT CONSTRUCTIONS, MOBILE HOMES,
RECREATIONAL VEHICLES, AND INSTALLATIONS WHERE LOCAL
CODES DO NOT ALLOW GROUNDING THROUGH NEUTRAL,
REQUIRE A 4-CONDUCTOR UL-LISTED RANGE CORD.
STEP 2. ACCESSING THE POWER CORD CONNECTION
Loosen and then remove the rear access cover screw with a screwdriver. Remove
the rear access cover by lifting it up and then out. The terminal block will then be
accessible.
