I intend to replace my old Jenn-air 30 inch W131 electric wall oven with a Frigidaire 30 inch Model #: FFEW3025PW.

Table A shows circuit breakers that correspond to the appliance watts faceplate rating for the Frigidaire. (See first attached image.)

I have not been able to ascertain how the Jenn-air is wired, what it draws, etc. (I am 2,000 miles away from the Jenn-air.)

The second attached image shows all I could find on the old Jenn-air.

Here are some general specs for a newer Jenn-Air JJW2430WS 30" Built-In Electric Single Wall Oven.

Bake Element Wattage @ 240V: 2800

Broil Element Wattage @ 240V: 3600

Convection Element Wattage @ 240V: 3400

Electrical

30, 60 Hz. 240/208 V

My question is this: Is the Frigidaire installation likely to require different wiring and circuit breakers than the existing Jenn-air. I believe the installation is typically hardwired with wire nuts. Should I expect a different Frigidaire wiring scheme to the Jenn-air wiring in place?

Many thanks,

Since you cannot assume that the old oven is installed correctly I cannot be of much help to you.

I did go to the Frigidaire web site and downloaded the unit's spec sheet.
It says that the minimum breaker must be 20 amp at 240 volts.
This should be a dual ganged breaker re: it disconnects both sides of the line when tripped.

It should be OK but then that is assuming and I have learned over the years that assuming thinks comes back and bites you.
