3-Wire Connection: Direct Wire
Use this method only if local codes permit connecting ground
conductor to neutral supply wire.
1. Pull the wires through the conduit on cord/conduit plate on
bottom of range. Allow enough slack to easily attach the
wiring to the terminal block.
2. Attach terminal lugs to line 2 (red), bare (green) ground, and
line 1 (black) wires. Loosen (do not remove) the setscrew on
the front of the terminal lug and insert exposed wire end
through bottom of terminal lugs. Securely tighten setscrew to
torque as shown in the following Bare Wire Torque
Specifications chart.
Bare Wire Torque Specifications
Attaching terminal lugs to the terminal block - 20 lbs-in. (2.3 N-m)
3. Use
³⁄₈
" (1.0 cm) nut driver to connect the bare (green) ground
wire to the center terminal block post with one of the 10-32
hex nuts.
4. Connect line 2 (red) and line 1 (black) wires to the outer
terminal block posts with 10-32 hex nuts.
5. Firmly tighten hex nuts.
IMPORTANT: Verify the tightness of the hex nuts.
6. Replace lower access cover.
