Is this a multi-tap ballast? If not,you can't.

there would be extra wires wirenutted off if it is. Check the nameplate on it and see if it says 120/240/277/480

convert hardwired oven to plug

garafola on Oct 02, 2002

I need to replace my 1975 hard wired free standing range. I wanted to disconnect the range and put a receptacle there. Do I put in a 3 prong or a 4 prong, or is this just for dryers? Can I buy a 3 prong cord for a new oven. Can anyone give me the basics on for the new connections of the wires I should find in the JB upon opening it? Or should I just try to hard wire my new range? (haven't bought it yet) Thanks for any help. garfRead More

Many manufactures have started producing White - 14ga Yellow - 12ga Orange - 10ga At this time there is no standard, but might not last long. Also there are no Code requirements for what color or use. The best reason for this colored cable seems to be an easy way for inspectors to identify the color with the gauge. If any one has found this colored cable Beneficial fill free to chime in.Read More
