Electrical Connection; Electrical Requirements - U.S.A. Only - Sears Kenmore Elite 66495223710 Instrucciones De Instalación

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.
Do not use an extension cord.
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition and all local codes and
ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02169-7471
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as
to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify
the power supply cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your range, you must determine the type
of electrical connection you will be using and follow the
instructions provided for it here.
Range must be connected to the proper electrical voltage
■
and frequency as specified on the model/serial/rating
plate. The model/serial/rating plate is located behind the
oven door on the top right-hand side of the oven frame.
This range is manufactured with the neutral terminal
■
connected to the cabinet. Use a 3-wire, UL Listed, 40- or
50-amp power supply cord (pigtail). See the following
Range Rating chart. If local codes do not permit ground
through the neutral, use a 4-wire power supply cord rated
at 250 volts, 40 or 50 amps and investigated for use
with ranges.
Range Rating*
120/240 Volts 120/208 Volts
8.8 - 16.5 KW 7.8 - 12.5 KW
16.6 - 22.5 KW 12.6 - 18.5 KW
* The NEC calculated load is less than the total connected
load listed on the model/serial/rating plate.
** If connecting to a 50-amp circuit, use a 50-amp rated cord
with kit. For 50-amp rated cord kits, use kits that specify use
with a nominal 1 3 / " (3.5 cm) diameter connection opening.

A circuit breaker is recommended.
■
The range can be connected directly to the circuit breaker
■
box (or fused disconnect) through flexible or nonmetallic
sheathed, copper, or aluminum cable. See the "Electrical
Connection - U.S.A. Only" section.
Allow at least 6 ft (1.8 m) of slack in the line so that the
■
range can be moved if servicing is ever necessary.

A UL Listed conduit connector must be provided at each
■
end of the power supply cable (at the range and at the
junction box).
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating
■
of the range.
The tech sheet and wiring diagram are located on the back
■
of the range in a plastic bag.
If Connecting to a 3-Wire System:
Local codes may permit the use of a UL Listed, 3-wire,
250-volt, 40- or 50-amp range power supply cord (pigtail).
This cord contains 3 copper conductors with ring terminals or
open-end spade terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a
NEMA Type 10-50P plug on the supply end. Connectors on the
appliance end must be provided at the point the power supply
cord enters the appliance. This uses a 3-wire receptacle of
NEMA Type 10-50R.
3-wire receptacle (10-50R)
If Connecting to a 4-Wire System:
This range is manufactured with the ground connected to the
neutral by a link. The ground must be revised so the green
ground wire of the 4-wire power supply cord is connected
to the cabinet. See the "Electrical Connection - U.S.A. Only"
section.
Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new
branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC), mobile homes and
recreational vehicles, or an area where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor.
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50R is used, a
matching UL Listed, 4-wire, 250-volt, 40- or 50-amp, range
power supply cord (pigtail) must be used. This cord contains
4 copper conductors with ring terminals or open-end spade
terminals with upturned ends, terminating in a NEMA Type
14-50P plug on the supply end.
The fourth (grounding) conductor must be identified by a green
or green/yellow cover and the neutral conductor by a white
cover. Cord should be Type SRD or SRDT with a UL Listed
strain relief and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long.
4-wire receptacle (14-50R)
The minimum conductor sized for the copper 4-wire power
cord are:
40-amp circuit
2 No.-8 conductors
1 No.-10 white neutral
1 No.-10 green grounding
