ELECTRIC DRYER ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Direct Wire Method
Use 10 gauge copper wire.
Use a UL listed strain relief.
Disconnect power before making electrical connections.
Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center
terminal.
Ground wire (green or bare wire) must be connected
to green ground connector.
Connect remaining 2 supply wires to remaining
2 terminals (gold).
Securely tighten all electrical connections.
Failure to do so can result in death, re, or
electrical shock.
Direct wire strain relief:
n Unscrew the removable conduit connector and
any screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL Listed strain
relief. Put the threaded section of the strain relief
through the hole below the terminal block opening.
Reaching inside the terminal block opening, screw
the removable conduit connector onto the strain
relief threads.
