Surface units operate on 240V which can be lethal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInspect the Element Prongs:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePRO TIP:\u003c\/strong\u003e If the receptacle is burnt, check the ends of your heating element. If the metal prongs are pitted or blackened, they will quickly destroy the new receptacle. It is highly recommended to replace the element and receptacle as a pair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWiring Security:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the provided ceramic wire nuts or high-temp crimp connectors to join the new leads to your range's internal wiring.
