INDUCTION COOKTOP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If the cable from appliance is equipped with 4 wires:
Where local codes permit connecting the
appliance-grounding conductor (wire) to the
neutral (white) wire (see figure 5):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box,
connect appliance and power supply cable wires
as shown in figure 5.
This appliance is manufactured
with a white neutral power supply and a frame
connected copper wire. The frame is grounded by
connection of grounding lead to neutral lead at
the termination of the conduit, if used in USA, in a
new branch circuit installation (1996 NEC), mobile
home, recreational vehicles, where local code do
not permit grounding trough the neutral (white)
wire or in Canada, disconnect the white and
green lead from each other and use ground lead
to ground unit in accordance with local codes,
connect neutral lead to branch circuit-neutral
conductor in usual manner see Figure 6. If your
appliance is to be connected to a 3 wire grounded
junction box (US only), where local code permit
connecting the appliance-grounding conductor to
the neutral (white) see Figure 5.

If cooktop is used in a new branch circuit
installation (1996 NEC), mobile home, recreational
vehicle, or where local codes DO NOT permit
grounding through the neutral (white) wire (see
figure 6):
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Separate the green (or bare copper) and white
appliance cable wires.
3. In the circuit breaker, fuse box or junction box:
connect appliance and power supply cable wires
as shown in figure 6.

WARNING
If connecting to a 4-wire power
supply cable electrical system, the appliance
frame connected ground wire MUST NOT be
connected to the neutral wire of the 4-wire
electrical system.
NOTE TO ELECTRICIAN:
The armored cable
leads supplied with the appliance are UL and
CSA-recognized for connection to larger gauge
household wiring. The insulation of the leads is rated
at temperatures much higher than temperature rating
of household wiring. The current carrying capacity of
the conductor is governed by the temperature rating
of the insulation around the wire, rather than the wire
gauge alone.
