ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
INFORMATION FOR ELECTRIC DRYERS
For electrical connections using a
power cord:
NOTE: If your dryer circuit is on a circuit protected by a
GFCI breaker, then 3-wire installation is not permitted.
House wiring and dryer must be configured for 4-wire.
WARNING
Use a new UL-listed 240V 30 amp dryer power supply
cord with closed ring terminals or spade terminals with
upturned ends.
Use a UL-listed strain relief.
Disconnect power before making electrical connections.
Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center
terminal.
Ground wire (green or bare wire) must be connected to
green ground connector.
Connect remaining two supply wires to remaining two
terminals.
Securely tighten all electrical connections.
Replace the terminal block cover.
Failure to do so can result in death, fire or electrical shock.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer: This dryer
must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This dryer uses a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the
WARNING
equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician, or service representative or personnel, if
you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded. DO NOT modify the plug on the power supply
cord. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

WARNING
- Electrical Shock Hazard
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DISCONNECT
POWER BEFORE SERVICING.
This dryer should be connected to an individual branch
circuit with 10 gauge copper wire minimum through a
30 amp fuse or circuit breaker. DO NOT fuse neutral.
Use copper conductors only.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a permanently connected dryer: This dryer
must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor
must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal on
the appliance.
