2.2.1 Electrical connection
1) The electric pasta cookers are designed to operate off 400 VAC+3N voltage.
2) The connection to the mains must be carried out through a suitably rated trip switch which
has at least 3 mm between the contacts. Moreover, the mains voltage - when the
appliance is working - must not exceed ± 10% of the voltage value.
3) The power cable to connect the appliance to the mains must be at least equal to the
H05RN-F rubber insulated type, with cross section suitable to the max. power
consumption; therefore, its lowest cross section must comply to the data stated in the
electrical specifications table for each type of appliance.
4) On top appliances the cable inlet and the terminal block are on the rear side. To carry out
the connection, unscrew and remove the protective cover.
To gain access to the terminal block of the ground appliances, front panel must be
removed: inside of the appliance you can reach the terminal block; to carry out the
connection, insert the cable through the inlet gland and the cable-clamp and connect the
wires to the relative binding posts.
5) The appliance must be provided with an efficient earth connection.
For this purpose, near the terminal block there is a binding post marked with the symbol
to which the earth wire (yellow-green) must to be connected.
The above-mentioned cable must be long enough so that – if the cable clamp loosens - it
can be stressed only after the feed wires have been disconnected .
NB: Earthing must be carried out according to the local standards and regulations in
force.
2.2.1.1 Equipotential connection
When interconnecting multiple appliances together, the electric pasta cooker must be
included in an equipotential system, whose efficiency has to be checked according to the
rules in force. The connection is on the rear panel in top appliances, and on the left-hand
side of the bottom frame in ground appliances, marked with “EQUIPOTENTIAL”.
