Power Requirements

The oven must be supplied with the proper voltage and
frequency. The oven is manufactured to be connected to a
three-wire or four-wire, single phase, 120V/240V, 60 Hz AC
electrical supply on a separate circuit fused on both sides of
the line. If a 120V/208V circuit must be used, see Connecting
to 120V/208V Circuit, in this manual. A circuit breaker or
time delay fuse, sized not to exceed the circuit rating of the
appliance specified on the rating plate located on the frame
behind the door of the oven is recommended (see figure at
page 6).
The oven must be supplied with copper or alumimum wires.
If aluminum wire is provided to connect oven to branch circuit,
UL listed connectors for joining copper and aluminum must be
used. Follow instructions provided with connectors.
It is recommended that you have the electrical wiring and hook-
up of your oven performed by a qualified electrician.
After installation is complete have the electrician show you
where the main disconnect is and which of the circuit breakers/
fuses are for the oven.
