A grounding kit (Part No. 12001875) is available.
It contains the external ground wire, clamp,
ground screw and washer. Where approved, it is
recommended this additional ground be
installed. A suitable external ground connection
MUST be determined prior to wire hookup.
Consult local building officials and qualified
electrician in event any questions exist. Connect
ground wire to back of dryer unit using the
grounding screw and washer. Secure other end
of the ground wire to a COLD water pipe using
the clamp.
NEVER CONNECT GROUND WIRE TO
PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS OR HOT
WATER PIPES.
ALL GROUNDING AND WIRING MUST BE
DONE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL
AND LOCAL CODES.
ELECTRIC DRYER UNITS
U.S. MODELS
Grounding Instructions
This electric dryer must be connected to a
grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an
equipment grounding conductor must be run
with the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal on the back panel.
Electric models are shipped with a ground strap
connected from the neutral (P2) terminal block
post to the frame of the dryer. The use of this
strap is permitted by the national electrical code.
The dryer electrical supply may be connected by
means of a new U.L. listed power supply cord kit
rated at 240 volts minimum, 30 amperes with
three No. 10 copper wire conductors terminated
with closed loop terminals, open-end spade lugs
with turned up ends or with tinned leads.
The power cord must be marked for use with a
clothes dryer and be retained with suitable strain
relief. If the dryer is to be installed in a mobile
home or an area where local codes do not
permit grounding through neutral, only 4
conductor power cord, rated and terminated as
above, may be used.
The electrical supply circuit should be fused
through a 30 ampere fuse or circuit breaker on
both sides of the line. The neutral line of the
service cord must always be connected to the
P2 terminal post. The two hot lines of the
service cord go to the P1 and P3 terminal block
posts. The neutral should not be fused or
broken. Be sure terminal block nuts are tight
and replace access cover.
Canadian models are shipped with approved
power cord sets attached.
G.F.I.
If the electric dryer is protected by a GROUND
FAULT INTERRUPTER, follow the procedure on
the next page for a 4-wire hook-up.
