MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Important: Switch off at mains, miniature circuit breaker and, if appropriate, remove fuse before commencing any electrical work.

PREPARING CABLE

We recommend you use a new length of cable to ensure your safety.

Ensure you have the correct length of cable appropriate to the wiring method you are using. When fitting new cable allow sufficient cable for removal of the unit at a later date, should it be necessary.

Score, but do not cut through, around the sheathing with a knife 100mm (4in) from each end of the cable and break through to the encased wires by bending the cable backwards and forwards to fatigue the sheathing.

Carefully score down from each end of the cable sheathing along the length of the bare earth wire (if a cut was made along the length of the live and neutral wires, it might cut into their sheathing) to the cuts

lalready made.

Carefully prise open the sheathing at each end of the cable to expose the encased wiring.
