Electric Dryers Power Supply
Typical 230-volt, single-phase power supply delver is power to a dryer by three conductors. The outer ones are hot, and the middle one electrically neutral. The two hot lines in electric dryer circuit are energized by fuses or circuit breakers in your home wiring system.
This is another case where it is necessary to make a voltage check with the VOM. To do this, remove the fuses from the main house panel that control the dryer. Then, insert the probes of your VOM in the two outer conductors with the VOM set to the 250 volts AC scale or higher, reinstall the fuses and take a reading. Then remove the fuse again and read from each outer to the middle conductor opening in the receptacle, just as you did for the first test.
When you're measuring voltage at the dryer receptacle with your VOM, you should read approximately 115 volts from each outer-conductor to the middle (grounded) terminal of the dryer receptacle. Also, because you are measuring the difference in potential between the two outer conductors, your VOM should indicate 230 volts across them.
Take a look at the wiring diagram of your electric dryer. Find the three lines representing the power supply and you will see that the motor and lights are connected from one side of the line to the neutral, and only the heating element circuit is connected across the 230 circuit between both hot lines. The symptom of the problem—the dryer will run but won't heat. The cause: simply a blown fuse in one of the outer conductors. It's very elusive but very simple if you understand how this typical 230-volt appliance circuit operates. And since you are now aware of this, you should make it a practice to automatically check the fuses first when an electric dryer runs but doesn't heat or when it doesn't run at all. This eliminates the need for making the voltage tests altogether. Many dollars have been spent unnecessarily for service technicians to perform this simple task.
Exhaust Connections
Moisture-laden air, very fine lint, and heat are exhausted through a lint trap located under the top panel. These exhaust products should be vented to the outside, if possible. Several exhaust accessories are available from the manufacturer. If the dryer is not to be exhausted to the outside, a deflector can be installed in the lint trap. The drive motor is located on the left side of the unit at the base. All service on the motor can be accomplished through the service door.
