The electrical connections must be in compliance to the regulations applied in the country of
installation and must always be realized by a certified electrician. Below is a diagram of how the
power supply is connected to the heating element through the thermostat.
IMPORTANT:
The electrical connections plastic cover on the side of the water tank should be installed
as shown in the drawing above. The smaller hole is for the overflow of any water leaking into the
electrics cavity and should be placed at the lowest point of the cover. The electrical cable hole is
larger to accommodate for the diameter of the cable and protective sheath.
