.
Undercounter and Freestanding Washers should be
hard-wired directly into a junction box. Refer to the figure below and follow the
steps below to connect your washer to the appropriate power source.
Be certain that you check and conform to all local electrical codes. Do not disturb
any internal wiring in the washer.
If you are connecting to certain legs of a 3-phase power system to obtain single-
phase power, be sure to consult a professional to insure codes/standards are
followed. These professionals can determine the appropriate connections for
either a Wye or Delta connected power source.
The supply circuit must consist of number 12 AWG 3-wire cable or heavier.
Washers must be connected to a dedicated service with a 20 amp circuit breaker
or fuse. Wire must comply with all local electrical codes. Type THW or THWN
wire may be used if it complies.
To connect the electrical supply:
1.
Remove 2 screws on each side of the middle panel.
2.
Pull the middle panel forward and remove it.
3.
Remove the lower panel on the washer front by removing the two screws
located at the bottom of the panel.
