Site Preparation — Electrical Requirements and Clearances
Electrical Requirements
This appliance requires a grounded dedicated circuit
with the following requirements:
• BSDF30 — 240/208 VAC, 60Hz, 40 amp
• BSDF36 — 240/208 VAC, 60Hz, 40 amp
• BSDF48 — 240/208 VAC, 60Hz, 50 amp
• BSDF60 — 240/208 VAC, 60Hz, 50 amp
Performance may be compromised if the electrical
supply is less than 240 volts.
For US models, the power cord is not included with the
range. If a power cord kit is used, it shall be rated 240V,
50 amps. It must include three or four conductors with
closed loop terminals and be marked for use with
ranges with nominal 1 3/8” (35mm) diameter connection
openings. A 4-conductor cord is required for
installations where grounding through the neutral is
prohibited such as:
• New branch-circuit installations (1996 NEC)
• Mobile homes
• Recreational vehicles
• In an area where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral
For Canadian models, the power cord is included.
Clearances
When the appliance is installed in an island, the island
trim itself should be kept at least 6” (152.4 mm) in a
vertical plane below the top horizontal plane of the
appliance and 6” (152.4 mm) above the top horizontal
plane of the appliance from combustible materials at
the rear.
When the appliance is installed in a zero clearance
condition or is installed with any other backguard in a
zero clearance condition. Use non-combustible/heat
resistant materials in a vertical plane for at least
6” (152.4 mm) below the top horizontal plane of the
appliance and 6” (152.4 mm) above the top horizontal
plane of the appliance where the appliance meets the
back wall.
The non-combustible material need not extend
horizontally past the initial barrier thickness. The initial
barrier should consist of materials such as ceramic tile,
cement backer board, .032” (0.8 mm) thick stainless
steel or other non-combustible material. Non-
combustible materials are dened as in the form in
which the material is used and under the conditions
anticipated, the material will not aid combustion or add
appreciable heat to an ambient re or materials that are
in compliance with ASTM E 136. Refer to the local
building code for additional information.
