Electrical connection
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. All external wiring must comply with the IEE Regulations for the Electrical Equipment of Buildings. The electrical supply can be by either a plug and socket or a permanently wired connection via a double - pole switch. Should the plug (where supplied) not fit the socket in your home, it should be removed and replaced with a suitable plug.
Note: If a moulded plug is fitted which is not suitable, it must be cut off and disposed of properly. To avoid the risk of electrocution, the moulded plug must not be left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket. It must not be used for any other appliance. Three pin plugs to BS1363 with a capacity of not less than 13A must be used and fitted with a 3 amp fuse ‘ASTA’ approved to BS 1362.
With moulded plugs, after replacing the fuse the cover must be refitted. If the cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover has been obtained from your supplier. The colour of the correct fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the fuse recess, or stated elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover. If you wish to make a direct connection to the mains, an omnipolar switch with a gap between the contacts of at least 3 mm, of suitable rating for the load and complying with the regulations in force, must be installed between the appliance and the mains.The switch must not break a contact in the yellow/green earth wire.
