Cable Installation
(see Fig 1 & 2)
Remove the two screws which hold the plastic terminal cover box (A) in place, lift off
the terminal cover box and set aside with the two screws for future use.
Remove the two screws securing the cable saddle clamp (B) and also set them safely
aside for future use.
Set the end of the power supply cable into position on the clamp (C) and strip a suitable
length of cable sheath off the end of the power supply cable so that Live, Neutral and
Earth wires are a suitable length to fit between the clamp (C) and the screw fixing
locations in the termial block provided (D) as shown.
Strip the ends of the Live, Neutral and Earth wires and fit each end under the protector
plates of the terminal block. Ensure the terminal screws are tight and the wires are
clamped securely by the terminal screws.
Place the end of the power supply cable sheath onto the the clamp (C). Refit and tighten
the cable saddle clamp (B) securely on top using the two screws previously removed.
Refit the terminal cover box (A) to the base moulding using the two screws previously
removed.
Ensure the power supply cable when fitted does not make contact with the body of
the heater.
Commissioning
• Checks on the electrical installation should include earth continuity and insulation tests
and must be undertaken by a competent person.
• Ensure that all the electrical connections at the lamps and the terminal rails have been
made correctly, that they are tight and that there is no loose or frayed wire.
• Replace and secure the terminal cover box and replace and secure the front panel.
• Check that the mounting bracket is securely fixed in the vertical position such that the
lamps remain in a horizontal plane at all angles of heater displacement.
• Roughly align the heater(s) and tighten the adjusters.
• Switch on the heater(s) and check that the lamp(s) are all operating. If time or temperature
controls are fitted check these for correct and safe operation by reference to the
supplier’s instructions.
• Make any adjustments that are necessary to give an even spread of heat over the
required area. This may be done simply by perception of the heating effect or by using
the distribution of visible light either at night or by darkening the room.
Hand over
Hand over these instructions and make sure the user is familiar with all aspects of operation
and safety including the need for regular cleaning and an annual inspection. In the event
of the premises being unoccupied then leave heater(s) switched off and isolated from
the electrical supply. Leave instructions adjacent to the electricity meter.
