 HARD WIRING THE SYSTEM

The Hydrotherm system is supplied with a 3 point

 

earthed

plug  and  may  be  run  off  a  standard  power

 

socket  or

extension cord. Running the unit off the plug

 

should only be

temporary  (e.g.  when  an  electrician  is  delayed  to  your
home).

For continued long term operation the Hydrotherm system

must be hard wired into an isolated 10 amp circuit.

A  qualified  electrician  should  remove  the  units  plug  and

utilize  the  power  supply  cord  to  wire  the  system  into  a
junction box.

The junction box must be rated for outdoor use and should

be fitted with an isolating switch as shown in the diagram to
the right.

If  the  supply  cord  is  damaged,  it  must 
be 

replaced 

by 

either 

the 

manufacturer,  a  service  agent  or 
similarly  qualified  person  in  order  to 
avoid a hazard. 

Depending  on  the installation  address, 
the  Hydrotherm  must  be  connected  to 
either  a  Continuous  or  Shoulder  Tariff 
power  supply.  Please  refer  to  section 
2.4 for further information.

This  appliance  shall  be  installed  in 
accordance  with  National  wiring 
regulations AS.3000.
