Electrical Supply
The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that
the dishwasher electrical installation is in compli-
ance with all national and local electrical codes and
ordinances. The dishwasher is designed for an
electrical supply of 120V, 60 Hz, AC, connected to a
dishwasher-dedicated, properly grounded electrical
circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for 15 amps. If
the dishwasher is connected with a food disposer, a
20 amp (and no higher) fuse or circuit breaker may
be used. Electrical supply conductors shall be a
minimum #14 AWG copper wire.
Regardless of where the electrical supply cable
enters the enclosure (following the guidelines on
page 8), position the cable 21” (533mm) from the
enclosure’s left side, as shown in Figure 5, letter A.
Extend the cable 30” (762mm) from the enclosure’s
back, as shown in Figure 5, letter B.
Remove 3” - 4” (75mm - 100mm) of the cable’s
outer casing, as shown in Figure 6, letter C, then
remove 3/8” - 1/2” (9 - 13mm) of insulation from
each conductor, as shown in Figure 6, letter D.
