Grounding instructions
For waste disposers equipped with an
grounded plug-in power cord
A. Plug into appropriate outlet
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having 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.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.

B. Convert to permanent wire installation
1. Remove Cord and Plug from the disposer –
Simply cutting the plug off of the existing
cord is not allowed and voids the warranty.
2. Follow instructions below for Permanent
Wire Installation instructions.

Grounding:
This disposer 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 disposer.
An acceptable motor control switch with
a marked off position shall be provided at the
time of installation to disconnect the disposer
from all ungrounded supply conductors. The
switch shall be mounted in sight of the disposer
or in sight of the sink opening for the disposer.

Warning: Electric Shock
Turn off power before installing or servicing
disposer. All wiring must comply with local
electrical codes.
Do not connect electrical current at main
breaker panel until adequate ground is
established. Inadequate connection of the
ground wire can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult with a certified electrician or
tradesman if there is any doubt whether the
disposer in inadequately grounded. Your
disposer must be adequately grounded.
1. Turn off or disconnect all power to the wall

whatever is tying the old disposer wire to
the electrical wire inside of the junction box.
3. Open the end bell plate at the bottom or the
disposer.
If you are using flexible armored (BX) cable:
1. Install cable fitting in the disposer end bell
hole.
2. Secure the cable to the fitting and install an
insulating bushing or equivalent.
3. Connect white wire from the junction box to
the white (or blue) wire of the disposer.
4. Connect black wire from the junction box to
the black (or brown) wire of the disposer.
5. Connect bare ground wire from the junction
box to green ground screw within the
disposer end bell.
If you are using nonmetallic-sheathed (ROMEX)
cable:
1. Install cable fitting in the end bell hole and
secure the cable to the fitting.
2. Connect white wire from the junction box to
the white (or blue) wire of the disposer.
3. Connect black wire from the junction box to
the black (or brown) wire of the disposer.
4. Connect bare ground wire from the junction
box to green ground screw within the
disposer end bell.
If your power supply cable does not include
a grounding wire, one must be provided. Attach
a copper wire securely to the disposer ground
screw and attach other end of ground wire to
a metal cold water pipe. Do not attach ground
