Electrical Requirements

All electrical connections must be made by a properly licensed

and competent electrician. This is to ensure that the electrical

installation is adequate and conforms to local, state, and

national regulations or codes of the country of origin. 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

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.

Each dryer should be connected to an independently protected

branch circuit. The dryer must be connected with copper wire

only. Do not use aluminum wire, which could cause a fire

hazard. The copper conductor wire/cable must be of proper

ampacity and insulation in accordance with electric codes for

making all service connections.

NOTE: The use of aluminum wire will void the warranty.

An individual ground circuit must be provided to each dryer,

do not daisy chain.
