Step 5: Electrical Requirements, Connection And Grounding - Thermador P24GE Mode D'emploi

• Always disconnect appliance
from the electric supply either
by disconnecting power cord or
shutting off the breaker before
servicing the appliance.
• All 120 Volt cooktop models
must be plugged into a mating
3-Prong, Grounding-Type
Receptacle. The receptacle
must be connected to a
p r o p e r l y g r o u n d e d a n d
polarized electrical power
supply rated at 120VAC,
Single Phase, 60HZ. See list
below for proper over-current
protection requirements for
each model.
• A l l 2 4 0 Vo l t c o o k t o p
models require hard wire
connections.
CAUTION: Improper
grounding or polarization
will cause malfunction (such
as continuous sparking
of the burner igniters).

appliance and can create a
condition of shock hazard.
If the circuit is not correctly
grounded and polarized, it is the
responsibility and obligation of
the installer and user to have
the existing receptacle changed
to a properly grounded and
polarized receptacle. This must
be accomplished in accordance
with all applicable local codes
and ordinances by a qualified
electrician. In the absence of
local codes and ordinances, the
receptacle replacement shall be
in accordance with the National
Electric Code. (See Fig.10)

attached to the bottom of the
cooktop chassis for access by
a qualified service technician.
Do not remove or discard this
important information.
Grounding Method for
120 VAC Models
The cooktop is factory equipped
with a power supply cord with
a three-prong grounding plug
(with polarized parallel blades).
IT MUST BE PLUGGED INTO
A M AT I N G , G R O U N D I N G
TYPE RECEPTACLE THAT IS
CONNECTED TO A CORRECTLY
POLARIZED 120 VOLT CIRCUIT
(240 VOLT CIRCUIT FOR
PC484GE AND P24GE). (See
Fig. 10). Improper grounding or
polarization will cause malfunction
(such as continuous sparking of
the burner igniters), may damage
this appliance, and can create a
condition of shock hazard.
Electrical Connection for
240 VAC Models
1. Attach flexible conduit to the
junction box.
2. Connect the cooktop lead
wires to the junction box
supply wires in proper
phase:
For all models, connect black
(L1) to black, red (L2) to red,
white wire to neutral and
green wire to ground.
Note: If the 120V cooktop
is installed and connected
