MUST conform
with the latest
edition
of the National
Electrical
Code,
ANSI/NFPA
70, or the Canadian
Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1,
and such local

Grounding Instructions
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 or lead on the
dryer.
The dryer has its own terminal block that must be
connected
to a separate
branch, 60 Hertz, single
phase circuit, AC (alternating
current) circuit,
fused at 30 Amperes
(the circuit must be fused
on both sides of the line). Electrical
service
for
the dryer should be of maximum
rated voltage
listed on the nameplate.
Do not connect
dryer
to 110, 115, or 120 Volt circuit. Heating
elements
are available
for field installation
in
dryers which are to be connected
to electrical
service of different voltage than that listed on
nameplate,
such as 208 Volt.
If branch circuit to dryer is 15 feet (4.57 m) or
less in length, use No. l0 A.W.G. wire (copper
wire only), or as required
by local codes. If over
15 feet (4.57 m), use No. 8 A.W.G. wire (copper
wire only), or as required
by local codes. Allow
sufficient
slack in wiring so dryer can be moved
from its normal location when necessary.
The power cord (pigtail) connection
between
wall receptacle
and dryer terminal block IS NOT
supplied
with dryer. Type of pigtail and gauge
of wire must conform
to local codes and with
instructions
mentioned
on the following
pages.
The method of wiring the dryer is optional
and
subject to local code requirements.
