5.1 Connection of foil pieces within a floor
For the connection of several pieces of Ecofilm foil, 5-conductor WAGO connectors can be used. One con-
nector can connect four heating films via one pole. You need 2 connectors for the connection of 4 pieces of
foil. If more connectors are used, connect them in series; the current passing through the connector must not
exceed 20A. The connectors are to be placed under the floor covering, into grooves which have been pre-
pared in advance, outside the heating film.
Number of connectors for sets:
2 connectors – 2 to 4 sets
4 connectors – 5 to 7 sets
6 connectors – 8 to 10 sets
8 connectors – 11 to 13 sets
Installation procedure:
1. Lay out the heating films and stretch the conductors to the place of connection.
2. Cut out a groove in the floor as shown in the picture.
3. Remove the insulation from the conductor to a length of 9–10 mm.
4. Lift the orange lever, insert the conductors into the openings and pull the lever back again.
5. Place the connector into the groove; see the picture in point 2.
6. How to Lay a Floor Covering
• Lay a floor covering in accordance with the manufacturer's technical conditions and instructions.
7. Final Measuring
• Measure the resistance of individual circuits again and measure leakage current with an ohmmeter and
enter the data in the Warranty Certificate. The completed Warranty Certificate and this Installation Guide
must be handed over to an owner (user)!
