2.2.1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
1) The hobs with electric hotplates and the cookers are delivered set up for operation at
VAC 400 + 3N
2) Connect to the electricity line, interposing a suitably rated automatic circuit breaker,
where the opening distance between the contacts must be at least 3 mm. Furthermore,
the supply voltage must not deviate from the voltage value by ± 10%.
3) The characteristics of the flexible cable chosen for connection to the electricity line
must not be inferior to the type with rubber insulation H05RN-F and it must have a
nominal cross section suitable to absorb maximum current; hence, as indicated in table
1.1, it must have the same minimum cross section indicated relative to the cooker
model.
4) On the “top” hobs, cable input and the terminal board are at the back and in order to
connect up you have to unscrew the screws and unhook the protection cover. To
connect up: put the flexible cable through the grommet and cable relief strain, connect
the single wires to their corresponding terminals.
5) It is essential that the appliance is connected to an effective earth plug. For this
purpose, near the connection terminal board there is a terminal marked with a plate
with the symbol on it and to which the earth wire must be connected (yellow-green).
This wire must be long enough so that, if the cable relief strain slackens, it can only be
stressed after the power wires have been disconnected.
NOTE: earthing must comply with current laws.
2.2.1.1 EQUIPOTENTIAL CONNECTION
If you are installing several appliances in a row, the kitchen must be connected to an
equipotential system whose effectiveness must be verified in accordance with the
relative current laws. The connection is found on the rear part of top appliances, and on
the left-hand side of the base for floor-standing appliances. It is marked with the tag
"EQUIPOTENTIAL".
Earth terminal wires
NOTE: The manufacturer declines all responsibility if safety regulations are not
complied with as described above.
