Electrical Connections

WARNING!

Read the Electrical requirements and grounding

instructions before connecting the tumble dryer.

Electric models of the dryer are manufactured for

a 3-wire connection system. The dryer frame is

grounded by a link to the neutral conductor on the

dryer terminal block. If local codes do not permit

grounding through the neutral, the grounding link

from the terminal block must be removed and a

separate ground wire must be used.

Only a 4-conductor cord shall be used when the

appliance is installed in a location where

grounding through the neutral conductor is

prohibited. Grounding through the neutral

conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit

installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles,

and areas where local codes prohibit grounding

through the neutral conductors. The grounding

link on the dryer must be removed for all 4-wire

installations.

These Electrical Connection instructions provide

for installing the dryer in the following situations:

3-wire connection where local codes permit

grounding through the neutral. 3-wire connection

plus separate grounding connector where local

codes do not permit grounding through the

neutral.

4-wire connection.

Each of the above connections can be made with

an approved power supply cord or by direct wiring.

Each connection instruction identifies the

appropriate Power Supply Cord and covers

requirements for direct wiring.

NOTE!

In Canada, the dryer is delivered ready-fitted

with a four-prong plug intended for connection

to a single-phase supply.
