Water, Power and Safety First

Built-in dishwashers are typically specified for their own properly grounded 120-volt branch circuit protected by a 15- or 20-amp breaker or time-delay fuse, with no extension cords or adapter plugs. Source: GE Appliances - Built-In Dishwasher Installation Instructions
