Electrical Requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that
the ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local
codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
It is not recommended to have a fuse in the neutral or ground
circuit.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association

Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International

Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
Before You Make the Electrical Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
■
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single phase, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only
electrical supply is required on a separate, 50-amp circuit
(36" [91.4 cm] models) or 40-amp circuit (30" [76.2 cm]
models), fused on both sides of the line.
■
The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box
through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper
cable. The flexible, armored cable extending from the fuse box
or circuit breaker box should be connected directly to the
junction box.
■
Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible
between the junction box and the cooktop so that the cooktop
can be moved if servicing becomes necessary in the future.
■
Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the cooktop.
■
A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the
cooktop and at the junction box). A listed conduit connector is
already provided at the cooktop.
■
If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
1. Decide on the final location for the cooktop.
NOTE: Countertop must be 1
³⁄₁₆

“Assistance or Service” section of the Use and Care Guide for
information on ordering.
To Install Brackets into Marble Countertop:
1. Clean the brackets and cooktop cutout of any dust and
debris.
2. Measure the center line of the vertical sides of the cooktop
cutout.
3. Apply the adhesive provided in the kit to the back side of the
brackets.
