Cabinet Dimensions
IMPORTANT: If installing a range hood or microwave hood
combination above the range, follow the range hood or
microwave hood combination installation instructions for
dimensional clearances above the cooktop surface.
NOTES: After you make the countertop cutout, some
installations may require notching down the base cabinet side
walls to clear the cooktop base. To avoid this modification, use a
base cabinet with sidewalls wider than the cutout.
If cabinet has a drawer, a 5¹⁄₈" (13 cm) depth clearance from the
countertop to the top of the drawer (or other obstruction) in base
cabinet is required.
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.
It is not recommended to have a fuse in the neutral or ground
circuit.
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:
National Fire Protection Association

Quincy, MA 02169-7471
CSA International

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, 240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only
electrical supply is required on a separate, 50-amp circuit
(36" [91.4 cm] models) or 40-amp circuit (30" [76.2 cm]
models), fused on both sides of the line.
■ The cooktop should be connected directly to the junction box
through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper
cable. 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.
■ Do not cut the conduit. The length of conduit provided is for
serviceability of the cooktop.
■ 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). A listed conduit connector
is already provided at the cooktop.
A. 29½" (75.0 cm) on 30" (76.2 cm) models
B. Combustible area above countertop (shown by dashed box above)
C. 30" (76.2 cm) minimum clearance between top of cooktop platform
and bottom of uncovered wood or metal cabinet (24" [61 cm]

not less than No. 28 MSG sheet steel, 0.015" [0.04 cm] stainless
steel, or 0.024" [0.06 cm] aluminum or 0.020" [0.05 cm] copper)
D. 13" (33.0 cm) recommended upper cabinet depth
E. 2" (5.1 cm)
