AC power lead 2m with 13A 3 pin ptug (13A fuse)
Stock No. QUKES2B
Check that the voltage range marked on the back
matches the supply before you connect the unit.
The77 is supplied with an AC power lead with a moutded 13A 3 pin plug with
1 3A f use. Do not cut off this plug or use it with its fuse cover removed. lf however
for any reason the plug has to be removed then it must be disposed of and under
no circumstances plugged into a 13A socket ouilet. A suitable plug can be
fitted, as explained below:-
IMPORTANT - Fitting a mains ptug.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured:
Brown = Live
Blue = Neutrat
The Brownwire must be connected to the terminal marked L orcoloured Red.
The Blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked N or coloured Black.
lf the lead also has a GreenNeilowwire than this must be connected to the
terminal marked E or coloured Green or Green/yellow.
when a fused 13A plug is used a 13A fuse (ASTA approved to BS1362) will be
adequate for a typical Quad system. For other types of plug, then fit a 13A fuse
either in the plug, or adaptor, or at the distribution board. tt in oount consult a
qualif ied electrician.
This is not critical and it may be operated free standing or stacked. Note that
the amplifier can deliver substantial amounts of power. ihe diecast housing will
provide more than adequate cooling for normal domestic purposes but if
the
amplifier is played at very high volume levels for extended periods then
adequate ventilation must be provided - the case will become quite warm to the
touch. Do not place audio or video cassettes on top of the amplifier because the
magnetic fields produced by its mains transformer may affectthe quality of their
recordings.
The Quad 77 integrated amplifier is fitted with standard binding posts. lt is
unconditionally stable and can be used with any type of loudspeaier cable. For
optimum performance it is necessary to ensure that the resistance of the cable
is small relative to the loudspeaker impedance. eUAD loudspeaker cable gives
the best results. Each loudspeaker should be connected to the appropriate
output terminals so that the two pairs of wires are connected in the same way,
to ensure that the speakers are correctly phased. The output terminals are
colour coded to facilitate this. should there be any doubt the phasing can be
checked experimentally. see Loudspeaker phasing, page 9 for infomation on
how to check for correct phasing.
ChecHng the AC
The77 integrated amplifier is supplied in three versions suitable for connection
pouer Supply
to either 240-220V, 120-110V and 1OOV AC power supplies. Check that you
have the correct version before you connect the amplifierto the AC suppty. irre
operating voltage is clearly marked on the back. lf in doubt ask your euad
dealer.
