Electrical Requirements
IMPORTANT
: The hood must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of
local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
latest edition, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575
■
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is
required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also
recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this hood be provided.
■
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
■
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range
hood is properly grounded.
■
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
■
The range hood must be connected with copper wire only.
■
The range hood should be connected directly to the fused
disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored or
nonmetallic sheathed copper cable.
■
A UL- or CSA-listed strain relief must be provided at each end
of the power supply cable. Wire sizes (copper wire only) and
connections must conform with the rating of the appliance as
specified on the model/serial rating plate.
■
Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition, or CSA
Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and
C22.2 No. 0-M91, latest edition, and all local codes and
ordinances.

NOTE:
Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that gently reduce performance.
Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.
Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 feet (10.7 meters).
