Re: 3 wire range outlet
Take a look at 250.140 (2002 NEC). I'm not sure when the rule came in, though.

Re: 3 wire range outlet
The oldest code book I have access to is the 1978 NEC. Section 250-60 Frames of Ranges and Clothes Dryers. Has the basic same requirements as the sections that are in the code book today.

Re: 3 wire range outlet
I think the change was in the '96 code, but am not sure.

Re: 3 wire range outlet
Don is correct.
The 96 code makes the change to only allowing the grounded conductor to bond the frame in existing installations.
In my prior post I failed to see "in existing installations" of the 2002 code. (that's what I get for reading to fast
)
The 78 code allows the use of the grounded conductor for bonding. The conditions of use are the same as section 250.140 of the 2002 code.
