Electrical connection

Electrical connection U.K.

All electrical work should be carried out only by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations.

Ensure power is not supplied to the machine while installation work is being carried out.

The machine is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug for connection to a 230-240V mains supply. The voltage, rated load and fuse rating are given on the data plate. Please ensure these match the household mains supply.

Connection should be made via a fused plug and suitable switched socket which is easily accessible after installation.

For extra safety it is advisable to install a residual current device (RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA (in accordance with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100, section 739).

Do not connect via an extension lead.

Important

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

Green/yellow

= earth

Blue

= neutral

Brown

= live

Electrical connection U.K. Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363

If this machine is fitted with a non-rewireable plug and the socket outlets are not suitable for the plug supplied or if the existing plug needs to be replaced by a new one, the old plug will need to be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. The fuse carrier and the fuse should be removed from the old plug and disposed of.

The plug cut from the cable should then be disposed of and on no account be inserted into any socket elsewhere in the house (electric shock hazard).

The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as applicable to the design of plug fitted).

Replacement fuses should be ASTA approved to BS 1362 and have the correct rating. Replacement fuses and fuse covers may be purchased from your local electrical supplier.
