   Electric ovens require a lot of power in order to operate. This is why they are powered by a double-pole, 220V circuit. Increasing the voltage reduces the amperage drawn by the oven, ultimately allowing it to work more efficiently. If the electric oven were powered by a simple 120V circuit, your electric bill would be astronomical. This is why there are four wires that get connected to your oven when it is installed.
