Electrical connection

The electrical connections and protection must be carried out in 
accordance with local regulations.

The motor requires no external motor protection.

Check that the supply voltage and frequency correspond to the values 
stated on the pump. See 

14.1 Nameplate

.

Connect the pump to the mains with the plug supplied with the pump 
as shown in fig. 

6

, steps 1 to 8.

Light in the control panel shows that the electricity supply has been 
switched on.
