Electrical Connection - Rinnai Neo RIB2311N Installation Manual

Electrical connection

The Neo is supplied with a power cord (length 1500 mm) and a 3-pin plug. The
standard electrical connection passes through the rear panel, but can also pass
through the left or right hand side of the unit by removing the knockout tab from
the bottom edge of the front panel. If changing the electrical position use the
rubber grommet from the rear of the appliance for cable protection.
The connection is either direct wired* or
connected to a power point within the cavity. This
must be connected to a dedicated 240 V, 10 A
earthed power point. The electric isolation switch
must be accessible after the appliance has been
installed.
The heater must not be located immediately below
a socket outlet (potential fire hazard).
The power cord is not fire rated and should not
come into contact with the unit. If the power cord
is damaged, it must be replaced by a licensed
tradesperson. This must be a genuine replacement
part available from Rinnai.
Using existing externally mounted power points on inbuilt installations
If you already have an existing power
point outside the enclosure, you can
redirect the power cord and plug through
the LHS or RHS of the front panel. With
the frame removed redirect the cord and
plug (with the grommet), underneath the
unit and to the front (left or right).
Remove the pre-punched metal knock-
out located in the lower left or right edge
of the frame. Refit the cord and plug to
the frame, ensuring the grommet is fitted
to the metal knock-out. Excess cord may
be left in the cavity below the unit DO
NOT coil excess cord.
* Consult a qualified electrician if direct wiring is required as it must comply with AS/NZS 5601 and AS/NZS 3000 and other
relevant local regulations
Electrical knock-out position on a Neo frame knock-
out is on both sides of the frame.
