F. ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
1. Electrical Requirements
It is your responsibility to have
ALL electrical connections made by a properly licensed and competent
electrician to assure that the electrical installation is adequate and conforms to local and state regulations or
codes. In the absence of such codes,
ALL electrical connections, materials, and workmanship must
conform to the applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST
EDITION or in Canada, the Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/or the requirements stipulated
in this manual can result in personal injury or component failure.
NOTE: Component failure due to improper installation will VOID THE WARRANTY.
It is required that a separate circuit servicing each basket (tumbler) be provided. The dryer must be
connected with copper wire only. DO NOT use aluminum wire, which could cause a fire hazard.
NOTE: The use of aluminum wire will VOID THE WARRANTY.
2. Electrical Connections
A wiring diagram is included with each dryer showing the wiring connection sequence. The electrical
connections are made at the terminal block located in the wiring box, at the rear top area of the dryer. The
dryer is shipped with three (3) connection points (L1, L2, Neutral, and Ground) for each basket (tumbler).
If local codes permit, power to the dryer can be made by use of a flexible U.L. listed power cord/pigtail
(wire size must conform to rating of dryer), or the dryer can be hard wired directly to the service breaker
panel. In both cases, a strain relief must be installed where the wiring enters the dryer.
NOTE: It is required that a circuit servicing each basket (tumbler) be provided.
