Wiring connection for gas cooker
To allow for disconnection of the appliance after
installation, the plug must be accessible after installation.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Installing the gas cooker gas connection
Read these points before connecting to the gas supply:
• The cooker inlet connection point has a ½” BSP
external thread. See diagram below.
• An NG regulator or a LPG/Propane test point fitting
is supplied.
• It is recommended to fit the regulator or test point
fitting to the appliance connection point, then fit
either hard piping or a high level flexible connection
(AS/NZS 5601.1 clauses 5.9 and 6.10.1.9) which is then
attached to the consumer hard piping.
• Ensure installation allows withdrawal of appliance.

for LPG or Propane operation, in which case the supply
pressure and operating pressure are the same. In such
cases the supply pressure is adjusted at a regulator in the
consumer piping, typically located at the cylinder.
