LOW VOLTAGE CONNECTION TERMINAL DETAILS

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Access to the High Voltage and Low Voltage Connection Strips can be made by removing the appropriate knockouts on the back
panel of the water heater. All connections should be secured using an appropriate cord anchorage. One cord anchor is supplied
with the water heater for securing the mains supply to the unit. If additional controls and ancillaries are to be used, the appropriate
knockout should be removed and an anchor such as RS Components part number 607-897 plus locking nut 444-3085 should be
fitted.
If a knockout is removed by mistake, the resulting hole must be blocked with an appropriate anchor,
plug or grommet to prevent accidental access to the live parts within the water heater.
