All electric wall ovens must be hard wired
(direct wired) into an approved junction
box. A plug and receptacle is NOT
permitted on these products.
With the oven in front of the cabinet
opening, on a table or platform, connect the
flexible conduit to the electrical junction box
as shown below. You will need to purchase
a strain relief clamp to complete the
connection of the conduit to the junction
box.
Do not shorten the flexible conduit.The
conduit strain Relief Clamp must be securely
attached to the junction box and the flexible
conduit must be securely attached to the
clamp. If the flexible conduit will not fit within
the clamp, do not install the oven until a
clamp of the proper size is obtained.
