Clip Summary

Bob joins electrician Larry Dana in the Vermont farmhouse kitchen, as he installs the Kenmore Elite 30 self-cleaning convection oven. The oven requires a 220 high-voltage current-- it will be delivering a high degree of heat. Bob underscores that, as a rule of thumb, you should always connect your ground wires first.

Next, Larry connects the neutral wire, saving the potentially hot wire for last. Rather than putting the junction box back in the wall after connecting the wires, Larry leaves it floating behind the unit to facilitate servicing later on, if it becomes necessary.

In addition to the aesthetics, another advantage of the flush controls on these newly designed appliances is that, without the clutter of toggle switches and buttons, they are a lot easier to read and to keep clean.
