During a recent kitchen remodel, out cook top was disconnected and I am not sure what wires go to what. I have coming out of the wall a White wire, a black wire and a red wire. Coming from the Cooktop, I have a black wire, a red wire and a bare wire. There is also a white wire attached to the terminal box, I presume acting as a ground wire.
I know that I should connect black to black and red to red. Do I connect the bare wire coming out of the cooktop to the white wire from the wall and the white wire to the terminal box?
Sound like you have a three wire setup on you house most commonly the black wire is the L1 wire or one of the hot wires and the red is the L2 wire and is also one of the hot wire in this instance your white wire would be your neutral/ground wire this would connect to the copper wire on your cook top depending on the model it would have a red wire a black wire and the copper wire but some may also have a white wire also if this is the case on a three wire setup you would attach the copper and white wires together also if needed you can goto the maufactures website and download an instalation guide.
