CONNECTING TO MAINS TERMINAL

WARNING: This cooker must be earthed.

Make connection as shown in Fig. 7 by proceeding as follows:-

Preform wires to the appropriate shape to suit fitting into the mains terminal block.

Strip inner insulation on wires using wirestrippers.

Twist the bared wires using pliers.

Cut bared wires 10mm away from the end of

Fig.7

 

the inner insulation. Where uninsulated Earth

 

wires are used ensure they are suitably

 

sheathed to leave 10mm bare wire to fit into

 

the terminal.

 

Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal and

 

check they are held by tugging each one in turn.

 

Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm

 

of the outer insulation is inside the terminal

 

block and that the wires are not taut but not so

 

slack as to cause any fouling. See Fig. 7.

 

Place fuse/miniature circuit breaker in circuit

 

and switch on at mains.

 

CONNECTING TO A HOB OR COOKER

POINT

Either follow in general terms the instructions for connecting to the terminal block or refer to the hob suppliers installation instructions.

Feed the cable through the cabinet and arrange to route the cable away from the cooker which may become hot.

CHECKING ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONS

Correct electrical connection can be confirmed when switching on the appliance as the timer will be flashing.

NOTE: HOUSE CIRCUIT

Earth leakage and continuity tests must be carried out before the cooker is connected to the mains supply and re-checked after fitting.
