Electrical & Gas Requirements
Electrical Requirements
Check your national and local codes
regarding this unit. The ranges series
RN482... and RD482... require120VAC/60
Hz; 4 ft. (121.9 cm), 3-wire cord with
grounded 3-prong plug NEMA 5-15
attached to unit. The ranges series Rn483
require 120/240 Vac 60 Hz, 4 ft. (121.9
cm), 4-wire cord with grounded 4-prong
plug NEMA 14-50 attached to unit. See
“Electrical Connection” section for
grounding instructions. Must be fused
seperately from any other circuit.
Gas Connection
The appliance must be disconnected from
the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system.
The gas supply (service) line must be the
same size or greater than the inlet line of
the appliance. This range uses a 1/2” (1.3
cm) IDNPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all
pipe joints must be resistive to LP gas.
The range is designed specifically for
natural gas or liquid propane (LP)
gas. Before beginning installation
verify that the model is compatible
with the intended gas supply.
Manual shut-off valve:
This installer-supplied valve must be
installed in the gas service line before
the appliance in the gas stream and in a
location where it can be reached quickly
in the event of an emergency. Any opeing
behind the range shall be sealed.
In Massachusetts:
A “T” handle
type manual valve must be installed in the
gas supply line to the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Any conversion
required must be performed by
your dealer or a qualified licensed
plumber or gas service company.
Please provide the service person with
this manual before work begins.
Pressure Regulator
•All ranges have a pressure regulator on
the incoming service line for safe and
efficient operation, since service pressure
may fluctuate with local demand.
External regulators are not required on
this range since a regulator is supplied
with each unit. Under no condition by-
pass this regulator.
•Manifold pressure should be checked
with a manometer, natural gas requires
4.0”W.C.P. and LP gas requires 11.0”
W.C.P. Incoming line pressure upstream
from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P.
higher than the
manifold pressure in order to check the
regulator. The regulator used on this
range can withstand a
maximum input pressure of 1/2” PSI
(14.0” W.C.P.). If the line pressure is in
excess of that amount, a step down regu-
lator will be required.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
HAZARD
To avoid the risk of electri-
cal shock, personal injury or
death; verify
electrical power is turned off at the
breaker box and gas supply is turned off
until the range is installed and ready to
operate, installation by an authorized
installer only.
