Electrical Requirements

Ensure the operator can verify that the electrical plug is removed from power, from all access points around the fryer, to prevent personal injury when maintaining the fryer.

Shock Hazard

  • This unit must be adequately and safely grounded (earthed) or electrical shock could result. Refer to local electrical codes for correct grounding (earthing) procedures or in absence of local codes, with The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-(the current edition). In Canada, all electrical connections are to be made in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, and/or local codes.
  • To avoid electrical shock, this appliance must be equipped with an external circuit breaker which will disconnect all ungrounded (unearthed) conductors. The main power switch on this appliance does not disconnect all line conductors.
  • The electric fryer requires 208, 240 or 480 volt, three phase, 50/60 Hertz service. The 120 volt gas fryer is factory equipped with a grounded (earthed) cord and plug for your protection against shock, and should be plugged into a three-prong grounded (earthed) receptacle. Do not cut or remove grounding (earthing) prong. Any 230 volt plug used on the 230 volt unit must conform to all local, state, and national codes.
  • The 120 volt gas fryer is factory equipped with a grounded (earthed) cord and plug for your protection against shock, and should be plugged into a three-prong grounded (earthed) receptacle. Do not cut or remove grounding (earthing) prong. Any 230 volt plug used on the 230 volt unit must conform to all local, state, and national codes.
  • The 220 or 380 volt gas fryer is factory equipped with a grounded (earthed) cord and plug for your protection against shock, and should be plugged into a three-prong grounded (earthed) receptacle. Do not cut or remove grounding (earthing) prong.
  • The electric fryer requires 208 or 240 volt, three phase, 50/60 Hertz service.
  • U.S. (UL): 208, 220, or 440 volts, single or three phase, 60 hertz service.

  • International (CE): 240, 380, 400, 415 volts, single or three phase, 50 hertz service.

  • The power cord may be already attached to the unit, ordered as an accessory, or provided at installation. Check the data plate to determine the correct power supply.
  • A separate disconnect switch meeting over-voltage category III conditions with proper capacity fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location between the fryer and the power source. It should be an insulated copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90 C. For runs longer than 50 feet (15.24 m), use the next larger wire size.

(FOR EQUIPMENT WITH CE MARK ONLY!)

To prevent electric shock hazard this appliance must be bonded to other appliances or touchable metal surfaces in close proximity to this appliance with an equipotential bonding conductor. This appliance is equipped with an equipotential lug for this purpose. The equipotential lug is marked with the following symbol.

Equipotential Ground Symbol =

To avoid electrical shock or property damage, disconnect power before installing or servicing equipment.A qualified technician must perform the installation.

Cable Restraint

For Australia or New Zealand Only: Where a model is supplied with castors and is to be connected to a fixed gas supply via a flexible hose connection, a restraining chain or wire of adequate strength shall be fixed to the appliance and be suitable to be fixed to the wall within 50 mm of each connection point. The length of the chain or wire shall not exceed 80% of the length of the hose assembly.

Secure I-bolt to building using acceptable building construction practices.

Permanently connected electric fryers with casters must be installed with flexible conduit and a cable restraint, when installed in the United States and internationally. Holes are available in the rear fryer frame for securing the cable restraint to the fryer. The cable restraint does not prevent the fryer from tipping.

Ensure the cable restraint on moveable gas fryers is installed as shown.

The flexible gas hose cannot exceed 2M in length.

Proper Cable Restraint Installation

CE units require a minimum wire size of 6 mm to be wired to the terminal block. If a flexible power cord is used, it must be HO7RN type.

NOTICE -

It is recommended that a 30 mA rated protective device such as a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB), or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), be used on the circuit. The supply power cords shall be oil-resistant, sheathed flexible cable, no lighter than ordinary polychloroprene or other equivalent synthetic elastomer-sheathed cord.

Units being used outside the United States may not be shipped with the power cord attached to the unit because of the different wiring codes. The fryers are available from the factory wired for 200, 240, 380 and 415 volts, 3 phase, 50 Hertz service. A terminal block is mounted inside the fryer for the cable wiring.

Check the data plate mounted on the inside of the left door to determine electrical requirements for the fryer, see Figure 2-4 Data Plate Location, page 9. Refer to local electrical codes for correct grounding (earthing) procedures or in absence of local codes refer to the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (the current edition). Each vat has its own power cord assembly. An all pole separate disconnect switch with proper capacity fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location between the fryer and the power source. The disconnect switch must be installed according to national and local codes. It should be an insulated copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90° C. For runs longer than 50 feet (15.24 m) use the next larger wire size. CE units require a minimum wire size of 6 mm to be wired to the terminal block. It is recommended that a 30 mA rated protective device such as a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be used on the fryer circuit. Electrical requirements for each fryer are found on the inside of the left door.
