Installation and Operating Instructions
A
Electrical
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
The electrical installation must be carried out by a competent
electrician, and be in strict accordance with the current I.E.E.
regulations for Electrical Equipment in Buildings.
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code :
GREEN AND YELLOW :
BLUE :
BROWN :
BLACK :
- see also 'Pilot Wire Connection'.
The heater is fitted with a length of flexible cable type H05VV-
F size 4 x 1.0mm
2
for connection to the fixed wiring of the
premises through a suitable connection box positioned
adjacent to the heater.
A means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed
wiring of the premises in accordance with the wiring rules.
The supply circuit to the heater must incorporate a double
pole isolating switch having a contact separation of at least
3mm.
Pilot Wire Connection
The BLACK control wire is designed to carry a signal from
slot in or wall mounted Dimplex programmers. If, however a
programmer is not being used, the pilot wire should be
isolated in accordance with the current IEE Wiring
Regulations.
IMPORTANT - DO NOT connect the BLACK pilot wire to earth.
Care should be taken with the installation of the pilot wire(s)
as when switching to background (set back) they become
energised at 240V although only at a current of less than
100mA. In every case a suitable means of isolation must be
provided for the pilot wire and marked to indicate that two
sources of supply may be present at the heater.
Where pilot wires are installed separately from the heater
final sub-circuit they should be protected, double insulated
and carry their own integral earth continuity conductor.
Supplementary Earth Bonding
Should Equipotential Earth Bonding be required the earthing
conductor in the supply cord is deemed to provide the
supplementary bonding connection (see Regulation 547-
th
03-05, 17
Edition I.E.E. Wiring Regulations).
