Four-wire connection for electric dryers: Direct wire
• A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile and manufactured
home installations, as well as all new construction after January 1,
1996.
• A UL-listed strain relief is required.
1. Remove 5 inches (12.7 cm) of the outer covering from the wire.
Remove 5 inches of insulation from the ground wire. Cut off
approximately 1
1
⁄₂ inches (3.8 cm) from the other three wires
and strip 1 inch (2.5 cm) insulation from each wire. Bend the
ends of the three shorter wires into a hook shape.
2. Remove the terminal block access cover on the upper back of
the dryer. Install a UL-listed strain relief into the power cord
through-hole; then thread the power cable prepared in Step 1
through the strain relief.
• Use UL-listed  conductor
cable.
• Allow at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) length to allow for removal and
reinstallation of the dryer.
3. Transfer the dryer’s ground wire from behind the green ground
screw to the center screw of the terminal block. Attach the two
hot leads of the power cable to the outer terminal block screws.
Attach the white neutral wire to the center terminal block
screw. Attach the power cable ground wire to the green ground
screw. . Reinstall the terminal
