3.5 Electric requirements
The wiring diagram is located on the back board of the unit.
- The improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether your
dryer is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer -
if it doesn’t fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
- To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding
must be done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 - Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian
Electrical Code CSA C22.1 - Latest Revisions and local codes and ordinances. It is your
responsibility to provide adequate electrical services for your dryer.
- All gas installations must be done in accordance with the National Fuel Code ANSI/Z2231 -
Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or CAN/CGA - B149 Installation Codes - Latest Revision (for
Canada) and local codes and ordinances.
Electrical connections
An individual branch (or separate) circuit serving only your dryer is recommended. DO NOT USE
AN EXTENSION CORD.
Gas models - U.S. and Canada
A 120Volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service, with a 15 ampere fuse or circuit breaker is
required.
Electric models - U.S. only
The dryers require a 120/240 volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service.
The electric service requirements can be found on the data label located behind the door.
A 30-amperefuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
- If a power cord is used, the cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
- The power cord is NOT provided with U.S. electric model dryers.
Electrical Shock Hazard
When local codes allow, the electrical supply of the dryer may be connected by means of a new
power supply cord kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is UL listed and rated at a minimum of
120/240 volts, 30-ampere with three No. 10 copper wire conductors terminated with closed loop
terminals, open-end spade lugs with turned up ends, or with tinned leads.
- Do not reuse a power supply cord from an old dryer. The power cord electric supply wiring must
be retained at the dryer cabinet with a suitable UL-listed strain relief.
- Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations, (2)
mobile homes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conductor. (Use a 4-prong plug for 4 wire receptacles, NEMA type 14-30R.)
