3.2.3 Electrical Connection
Fitting a plug:
The mains lead of this appliance will already be fitted with a BS1363 13A plug. If the fuse must be
replaced, use a 13-amp fuse complying with BS 1362.
If the plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug must be cut off and disposed of safely. An
appropriate plug should be fitted as follows:
IMPORTANT:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following:
Wire Colour
Wire Name
Wire Code
Green & Yellow Wires
Earth
E
Blue Wire
Neutral
N
Brown Wire
Live
L
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is
marked with the letter E or the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which
is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured
black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter
L or coloured red or brown.
Make sure that the connections are tight and that there are no loose strands of wire and no
insulation trapped under the terminals. Tighten the clamp in the plug making sure that it grips the
outer covering of the cord. If fitting a BS 1363 13A fused plug, then fit a 13A fuse. Tighten the plug
cover securely. If you are in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
