ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
LOCAL AUTHORITY REQUIREMENTS
Installation is only permitted by a licensed electrician, and carried out according to
instructions provided by the manufacturer. Incorrect installation might cause harm
and damage, for which the manufacturer accepts no responsibility.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Before carrying out the connection to the power supply, the voltage rating of the
Cooktop
(stamped on the
Cooktop
identification plate) must be checked for correspondence to the
available mains supply voltage, and the mains electric wiring should be capable of handling the
oven’s power rating (also indicated on the identification plate). If you have any doubts, call in a
qualified technician.
NOTE: For connections to the mains power supply, never use adapters, reductions or multiple
power points as these may overheat and catch fire. Do not install separate timers.
After having installed the
Cooktop
, the switched outlet must always be in an accessible position.
The electrical safety of this
Cooktop
can only be guaranteed if the cooktop is correctly and
efficiently earthed, always ensure that the earthing is efficient; if you have any doubts call in a
licensed electrician to check the system. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for
damage resulting from an installation which has not been correctly earthed.
WARNING: If any damage occurs to the power cable during or after installation, it must be
replaced immediately by a licensed electrician with a replacement cable from your Service
Centre.
The cooktops can be connected to either a single phase 220-240Vac 50 Hz supply, or 2 phase
380-415Vac 50Hz.
SINGLE PHASE CONNECTION
First, a bridge connection must be made between terminals 1 and 2 (live) and between 3 and 4
(neutral). Connect the pairs to the live and neutral power supply cables. Connect the ground
terminal to the ground supply cable.
TWO PHASE CONNECTION
First remove any bridge connection between terminals 1 and 2 (live). Place a bridge connection
between 3 and 4 (neutral). Connect terminals 1 and 2 to the live power supply cables. Connect
either terminal 3 or 4 to the neutral power supply cable. Connect the ground terminal to the
ground supply cable.
The mains terminal block is located on the underside of the cooktop and the terminals are
accessible by removing the terminal block cover using a small flat screwdriver.
The
Cooktop
is designed for fixed connection to the mains. During installation, an all pole
disconnector should be included inside the supply circuit with a contact opening of at least 3mm
(rated 32A, delay functioning type). The power supply cord must not touch against any hot
surfaces and must be placed so that its temperature does not exceed 75 °C at any point along
its length.
IMPORTANT: The
Cooktop
must NOT be connected to the mains supply by means of a 10A, 15A
or 20A plug and socket.
The maximum current drawn in a single phase installation is 32A, and 2x16A for a two phase
installation. Only use cables Tmax 90C types H05RN-F, H07RN-F, H05RR-F, H07RR-F etc.
