Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible wall socket. Which is adjacent to, but not directly above and not more than 1.7m away from the appliance and capable of electrical isolation. The cooker point should be within 1.7m of the appliance to make it accessible to switch off the appliance in case of emergency. The mains lead should be routed so that it cannot touch hot parts of the cooker i.e. the back panel above a height of 650mm from the floor. Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable plug as outlined below.
If the moulded plug is cut from the cable for any reason it must be destroyed or disposed of safely, as protruding wires will be an electrical shock hazard.
If the fitted plug is removed.
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below to three pin plug of not less than 13amp capacity. If a B.S. 1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a 3 amp fuse which is approved to B.S. 1362.
