The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked with
the letter L or coloured red.
Secure all mains connections with cable clips and check the installation ensuring
no strands of wire are astray which may short to earth.
Do not connect the mains supply at this stage.
Once the complete electrical installation has been satisfactorily checked by a
qualified electrican the X-3 can be tested.
The mains power to your caravan should be obtained from a normal domestic
supply via a fixed connection point. The hook-up cable should have a conductor
size of at least 2.5mm sq. and when connected should be uncoiled.
In order to ensure the unit is functioning correctly note the following procedure:-
1.
Disconnect auxiliary battery by removing the in-line fuse.
2.
Hook the caravan to the mains supply.
3.
Switch the X-3 power supply on.
4.
If the 12 volt accessories work in the van the unit is functioning correctly.
5.
Replace in-line fuse.
The unit is unaffected by low input voltages or reversed polarity in the incoming
supply (see specification) ensuring that it works to its full potential particularly
when travelling abroad.
