Electrical connections

Any electrical work required to install this hob should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person, in accordance with the current regulations.

THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED.

The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.

This hob is designed to be connected to a 230-240V 50Hz AC electrical supply.

Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book.

The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord incorporating a 3amp plug fitted. In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.

Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue- Neutral

Brown- Live

Φ— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with

the letter 'E' or the earth symbolor coloured green and yellow.

Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured black.

Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red.

Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.

A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.

Permanent Connection

In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electric regulations.

The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.

Ensure that the hob supply cord does not come into contact with surfaces with temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.

Supply cable replacement

The cable used to connect the hob to the electrical supply must comply to the specifications given below.
