Electrical Connection - Whirlpool RCS3014GZ0 Instructions D'installation

(Electrical requirements continued from Panel A.)
C.
Wire sizes and connections 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.
D.
The cooktop should be connected directly
to the fused disconnect or circuit breaker box
through flexible, armored or non-metallic
sheathed, copper cable. The flexible, armored
cable extending from the fuse box or circuit
breaker box should be connected directly to the
junction box.
E.
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 is ever necessary. Do Not cut the
conduit.
F.
A U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector
must be provided at each end of the power
supply cable (at the cooktop and at the junction
box).

120-volt cooktop
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 20-ampere, fused
electrical supply is required. (Time-delay fuse or
circuit breaker is recommended.) It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance be provided. A NEMA 5-20R,
3-prong ground-type outlet must be used.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Recommended ground method
For your personal safety, this cooktop must be
grounded. This cooktop is equipped with a
power supply cord having a NEMA 5-20P,
3-prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock
hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating,
NEMA 5-20R, 3-prong ground-type outlet,
grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 — latest edition,
and local codes and ordinances. (See Figure 1.)
If a mating outlet is not available, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have a properly grounded,
NEMA 5-20R, 3-prong outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
WARNING - Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the appliance -
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
