How Frigidaire Dryers Are Built
Electric Frigidaire dryers run on a 240-volt circuit fed by two household breakers or fuses, and one tripped breaker can leave the drum turning with no heat. Source: Frigidaire - My dryer is running, but does not seem to be heating. What should I do?
Frigidaire notes that a 208-volt supply instead of 240 volts can lengthen drying times. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
