ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the owner’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety
devices. An rccB (residual current circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an rcD
(residual current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an rcD together with portable products that are
plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an rccB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a residual current
Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must
also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The
Health & Safety at Work Act 1974
makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance
and the safety of the appliance operator.
If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply. The pump and cable
are designed for submerging in water and as such must not be tampered with (if in doubt, contact a qualified electrician).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. regularly inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage,
especially power connections, to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6.
Important:
Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to
be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp plug may require a
fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain products, see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7.
DO NOT
pull or carry the appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8.
DO NOT
pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9.
DO NOT
use worn or damaged leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired
by a qualified electrician. A 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case of damage, cut off
and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(uK only - see diagram at right).
Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the GREEN/YEllOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the bROWN live wire to live terminal ‘l’.
c) Connect the bluE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer
insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
1.1.10. only allow the minimal amount of pump cable to enter water or wet areas. The electrical cable is designed for use in water and must
not be substituted. If damaged contact a qualified electrician.
