Direct wire,
3-wire connection:
Use where local codes permit connecting
cabinet-ground conductor to neutral wire.
Direct wire cable must have 5 ft (1.52 m)
of extra length so dryer can be moved
if needed.

from end of cable. Strip insulation back
1" (25 mm). If using 3-wire cable with
ground wire, cut bare wire even with outer
covering. Shape ends of wires into a hook
shape.
When connecting to the terminal block,
place the hooked end of the wire under the
screw of the terminal block (hook facing
right), squeeze hooked end together, and
tighten screw, as shown.
1. Loosen or remove center terminal
block screw (C).
2. Place the hooked end of the neutral wire
(white or center wire) of direct wire cable
(D) under the center screw of terminal

neutral wire (white or center wire) of
power supply cord/cable (D) under
center terminal block screw. Tighten
screw.
3. Connect the other wires to outer terminal
block screws. Tighten screws.
4. Tighten strain relief screws.
5. Connect a separate copper ground
wire (F) from the external ground
conductor screw (A) to an adequate
ground.
