All models are supplied with two mains leads
fitted with IEC plugs for connection to the
instrument. One has a U.K. 3 pin plug and the
other has a 2 pin “Schuko” plug for connection
to the mains. Choose the lead appropriate for
your electrical installation and discard the other.
Should neither lead be suitable, take the lead
with the U.K. plug and replace the plug with a
suitable alternative. This involves cutting off the
moulded plug, preparing the cable and
connecting to the re-wireable plug in accordance
with its instructions.
THIS OPERATION SHOULD ONLY BE
UNDERTAKEN BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
NOTE:
Refer to the equipment’s rating plate to
ensure that the plug and fusing are suitable for
