Example vent system
1- 90° elbow = 5 ft (1.5 m)
8 ft (2.4 m) straight = 8 ft (2.4 m)
1 - wall cap = 0 ft (0 m)
System length = 13 ft (3.9 m)
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent
creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce
performance.
Electrical Requirements
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the
ground path and wire gauge are in accordance with local codes.
Check with a qualified electrical installer if you are not sure the
cooktop is properly grounded.
Make sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or CSA Standards C22.1-94,
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. O-M91-latest
edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

Before You Make the Electrical Connection:
To properly install your cooktop, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
■
A 4-wire or 3-wire, single-phase, 120-/240-volt, 60 Hz.,
AC-only electrical supply on a separate, 40-amp circuit
breaker is required for both 30" (76.2 cm) and 36" (91.4 cm)
models. If a fused system is used, fuse both sides of the line.
■
The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction
box through the flexible metal conduit. The flexible, armored
cable extending from the fuse box or circuit breaker box
should be connected directly to the junction box.
■
Locate the junction box to allow as much slack as possible
between the junction box and the cooktop so that the
cooktop can be moved if servicing becomes necessary
in the future.
■
A UL Listed or CSA Approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the
cooktop and at the junction box).
■
If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure
below:
■
Connect the aluminum wiring using special connectors
and/or tools designed and UL Listed for joining copper
to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer’s recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry-accepted wiring practices.
