Connecting to the mains terminal
Warning: This appliance must be
earthed.
•
We recommend you use a new
length of 6mm
2
twin core and
earthed cable to ensure your
safety.
•
Make connection as shown by
proceeding as follows:-
•
Preform wires to the appropriate
shape to suit fitting into the mains
terminal block.
•
Strip inner insulation on wires using
wirestrippers.
•
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 and check they are held
by tugging each one in turn.
•
Clamp the mains cable securely
ensuring 5mm of the outer
insulation is inside the terminal
block and that the wires are not
taut but not so slack as to cause
any fouling. See diagram.
•
Place fuse/miniature circuit breaker
in circuit and switch on at mains.
Checking electrical connections
Correct electrical connection can be
confirmed when switching on the
appliance as the timer will be flashing.
Note: House circuit

be carried out before the appliance is
connected to the mains supply and re-
checked after fitting.
