ALL electrically heated dryers must be connected to the electrical supply service shown on the dryer’s
data label, which is affixed to the inside of the control door. The connecting wires must be properly
sized to handle the rated current.

NOTE: 21 kw ovens available on AD-230 model dryers only.
3. Grounding
A ground (earth) connection must be provided and installed in accordance with state and local codes. In the
absence of these codes, grounding must conform to applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canada
Standards: Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION. The ground
connection may be to a proven earth ground at the location service panel.
For added personal safety, when possible, it is suggested that a separate ground wire (sized per local codes)
be connected from the ground connection of the dryer to a grounded cold water pipe. DO NOT ground to
a gas pipe. The grounded cold water pipe must have metal to metal connections ALL the way to electrical
ground. If there are any nonmetallic interruptions, such as, a meter, pump, plastic, rubber, or other insulating
connectors, they must be jumped with no. 4 copper wire and securely clamped to bare metal at both ends.
IMPORTANT: For personal safety and proper operation, the dryer must be grounded.
