Electrical connections
Any electrical work required to install this hob
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person, in accordance with the current
regulations.
THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should these
safety measures not be observed.
This hob is designed to be connected to a 230-240V 50Hz
AC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating
plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the
hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book.
The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord
incorporating a 3amp plug fitted. In the event of having to
change the fuse, a 3amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse
must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the
wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with
the letter 'E' or the earth symbol or coloured
green and yellow.
— Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'N'
or coloured black.
— Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in
the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or
coloured red.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands
of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure over
the outer sheath.
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is
a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that
the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
Permanent Connection
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary
that you install a double pole switch between the hob
and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap
of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type
suitable for the required load in compliance with the
current electric regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
cable at any point.
Ensure that the hob supply cord does not
come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.
