ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
• Regulations: The electrical installation must be carried out in
accordance with the current national electrical regulations and
installed by a qualified person.
• Safety: In the interests of electrical safety, a 30-mA residual
current device (R.C.D. not supplied) must be installed in the
supply circuit. This may be part of a consumer unit or a separate
unit.
• Before starting work on the electrical installation ensure the
power supply is isolated.
• The motor and wiring must not be exposed to water.
• The supply cable must be positioned so that it is not stepped on,
cut or damaged.
7.1
Electrical Connection
• The pump is provided with a factory fitted supply cord.
This must be permanently connected to the fixed wiring of the
mains supply.
•
A means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed
wiring in accordance with the wiring regulations.
• A suitable method of connection would be via a dedicated
double pole switched, fused connection unit complying with BS
1363–4, protected with a fuse (see technical specification
section).
• The connection unit should be mounted in an easily accessible
position and should be labelled if confusion is possible, to allow
easy identification of the STORMBOOST isolating switch.
• Earthing: This appliance must be earthed via the supply cord,
which must be correctly connected to the earth point located in
the terminal box.
• Additional earthing: Certain installations may require additional
earthing arrangements such as equipotential bonding. Reference
should be made to the relevant regulations concerning this
subject to ensure compliance.
