If conduit is to be used then please follow the
instructions below:
• The drain feature must be drilled out using
a 5mm drill if top or side entry conduit is used.
Opening this drain hole will reduce the IP rating
of the product. Remember – open out the lower
drain feature only and only if required by
conduit entry being used.
• If bottom entry conduit is used, there must be
adequate drainage from the lowest point of
the
conduit.
• The relevant cable entry knockout should
be carefully removed by scoring the groove
around the knockout with a sharp knife and
then tapping it out with a small hammer.
A waterproof cable or conduit entry must
then be fi tted in its place.
• If two cable entry positions are used with
metal conduit, then earth continuity between
the conduits must be maintained.
• Ensure that the gasket is correctly fi tted,
and tighten the four screws (supplied) to fi x
the front cover in place (see fi g. 1). Do not
overtighten. Use of an electric screwdriver
is not recommended.

marked Reset (R), the status indicator should show red.
TEST – press the red button marked Test (T),
status indicator should show black. This indicates
that the RCD has been tripped and power has been
disconnected from the outlet.
RESET – press the grey (blue for TGV205) button
marked Reset (R) again, the status indicator
should show red.
If all the above operations work satisfactorily, the RCD
is safe for use.
If the procedure is not completed satisfactorily do not
use the RCD and seek professional advice.
In applications such as hand driers it may not be
practical to expect each user to test before use. In this
case we suggest an appropriate person applies the test
routine twice a day.
