Brother HL-1260 service manual Green and Yellow Earth Blue Neutral Brown Live

REGULATIONS

The wires in the mains cord are coloured in accordance with the following code :

GREEN AND YELLOW	: EARTH
BLUE	: NEUTRAL
BROWN	: LIVE

The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this printer may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug.

If you need to fit a different plug, proceed as follows.

Remove a length of the cord outer sheath, taking care not to damage the coloured insulation of the wires inside.

Cut each of the three wires to the appropriate length. If the construction of the plug permits, leave the green and yellow wire longer than the others so that, in the event that the cord is pulled out of the plug, the green and yellow wire will be the last to disconnect.

Remove a short section of the coloured insulation to expose the wires.

The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol , or coloured green or green and yellow.

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured black or blue.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured red or brown.

The outer sheath of the cord must be secured inside the plug. The coloured wires should not hang out of the plug.
