Documented field work
Before, rebuild and recorded result
The need
The recorded work involved installing a wall oven into a cabinet and establishing the electrical connections needed for it. The existing stove box cover was removed, the wires were disconnected, and the back of the stove was opened to inspect the connections inside.
PTX's approach
PTX used a longer range cord available on site. The team installed one range receptacle and one 1110 junction box, then installed the wall oven into the cabinet. The attached cord was run into the junction box, the other cord was run from the box to the receptacle, and the wires were spliced inside the junction box. A 1110 blank cover was installed afterward.
The recorded result
The breaker was turned on and the oven was tested. The work record states that the oven was working properly at that point, and the area was cleaned up. The record also notes that the job was more complicated than expected and that an hour credit was applied.
What this job helps another property owner consider
For a similar wall oven installation, this job shows why the available cord, receptacle, junction box and existing connections are relevant details to review before the final connection. In this case, the installation included opening the back of the stove, adding a range receptacle and junction box, and testing the oven after the connections were completed. This is an example from one New Westminster electrical service call, not a diagnosis of another property.
