 | Installation instructions for mains wire-in protectors

 

If possible the two units should be connected to the 
power supply a short distance apart either:

 

(a)  onto the first two outgoing ways

 

(b) up to a metre apart on the incoming power supply

9.5  Installing three phase units on single phase supplies 
 

If a three phase unit is installed on a single phase mains 
supply (or a supply in which one or two phases are not in 
use), the ESP units spare (or unused) live terminal(s) 
should be connected to live, otherwise its indication 
lights and volt free contact will not work correctly. The 
preferred approach is to take a connecting lead from 
each spare terminal to the supply live. However, it is also 
possible to connect the ESP units spare terminal(s) to 
whichever live terminal is in use at the unit.

9.6  Use of powered screwdrivers 
 

The use of powered screwdrivers is not recommended 
unless measures are taken to ensure screws are 
tightened correctly and not damaged
