CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
Do not earth this appliance to the gas
supply piping.
Connect to 230 - 240V AC supply only.
The electrical connection should be made using a
double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with
at least 3mm contact separation in all poles. The
cable must have conductors of sufficiently high
cross-sectional area to prevent overheating and
deterioration.
We recommend you use a new length of 6mm
twin core and earthed cable to ensure your safety.
Make connection as shown in Fig 2 by proceeding
as follows:-
Preform wires to the appropriate shape to suit
fitting into the mains terminal block.
Strip inner insulation on wires using wire
strippers.
Twist the bared wires using pliers.
Cut bared wires 10mm away from the end of the
inner insulation. Where uninsulated Earth wires
are used ensure they are suitably sheathed to
leave 10mm bare wire to fit into the terminal.
Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal (Fig.
2.) and check they are held by tugging each one
in turn.
Ensure all screws are securely tightened.
Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of
the outer insuation is inside the terminal block and
that the wires are not taut but not so slack as to
cause any fouling.
Connect the remaining end of the mains cable to
the appliance to the appliance point / junction box.
Place fuse / miniature circuit breaker in circuit and
switch on at mains.
When refitting the mains terminal cover, ensure that
the lower tabs are located inside the bottom edge of
the aperture, before fixing the two screws into the top
edge of the mains terminal cover. See Fig.3. Ensure
that the cover is securely fastened.
NOTE: HOUSE CIRCUIT
Earth leakage / continuity tests must be carried out
before the appliance is connected to the mains supply
and re-checked after fitting.
