WARNING!
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY (cont.)
If you are not familiar with electrical power and procedures, call a qualified electrician.
The power cord and/or connections must comply
with the National Electrical Code, Section 422
and/or local codes and ordinances.
For Models Not Equipped with a Cord:
If your disposer does not come equipped with a cord,
you can connect it in two ways:
1. Attach a power cord, minimum 18" in length and
not to exceed 36" in length. GE Kit #PM3X115
provides the parts needed to make this connection.
or
2. Wire the disposer directly into the house current.
GE recommends that a qualified electrician make
this connection.
To Attach a Power Cord:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: This appliance must be
grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
The power cord (to be installed) must have an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
In the absence of local codes and/or ordinances,
the outlet must comply with NEC requirements.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are
in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
NOTE: Disconnect electric power to disposer circuit before
installation. Turn the circuit breaker to the OFF position or
remove the fuse.
A. Connect the disposer to 110–120 Volt, 60 Hz AC
current only.
B. If a plug-in cord is used, use a three-prong
plug. Ground wire should be attached to the
ground screw in the bottom of the disposer
(end bell).
Trace lead connected to this
blade and attach that lead
to white wire on disposer.
NOTE: When viewing face of electrical plug
with grounding pin at top, the larger left blade
is connected to the identified wire.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

C. Use a cable clamp strain relief
connector where power cord
enters the disposer.
To Wire Your Disposer Directly into
the House Current:
GE recommends that a qualified
electrician make this connection.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: This appliance must be
connected to a grounded, metal, permanent wiring
system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must
be run with the circuit conductors and connected
to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are
in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
A. If you use BX cable:
1. Install the cable connector in the hole.
2. Connect white wire to white lead of disposer.
3. Connect black wire.
4. Connect bare ground wire.
If BX cable is not used, provide a separate ground
wire to the nearest grounded connection, using the
screw in the end bell for the ground wire.

B. If your power supply does not include a ground wire,
you must provide one unless metal cable is used.
Attach a copper wire securely to disposer ground
screw and attach other end of wire to the nearest
grounded connection. Use only UL approved ground
clamp. If plastic pipe is used in your home, a qualified
electrician should install a proper ground. Most houses
have electrical outlets under the sink that are half-
hot. This means one outlet is controlled by the wall
switch, while the other is always hot. The batch-feed
or "TC" model connects to the hot side, while the
continuous feed model connects to the switch side.
