Removing the plug
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug
and you should wish to remove it to add a longer
cable or to re-route the mains cable through
partitions, units etc. please ensure that either:
- The plug is replaced by a fused 13amp re-wireable
plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or
- The mains cable is wired directly into a 13amp
cable outlet, controlled by a switch (in compliance
with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving
the appliance.
Disposing of the plug
Cut off and dispose of the supplied plug if it does
not fit your socket. The cable should be cut as close
as possible to the moulded plug.
Remove the fuse.
