Alpha E-Tec Hybrid - General Information
4.1 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
ATTENTION:
The boiler supply cable must be connected to a 230 V ±10% / 50 Hz mains supply respecting L - N
polarity and earth connection;
, this must be connected to a fused 3 A double pole switch with class III overvoltage
category (contact separation of at least 3 mm in both poles) or a fused 3 A 3-pin plug and unswitched shuttered socket outlet
(both complying with BS 1363) in compliance with installation regulations.
The boiler is supplied with a 'Special X' type electrical connection with a PVC <HAR> H05VV-F 3 x 0.75 cable without a plug.
If the power cable is damaged or replaced, it must be replaced with a cable supplied by Alpha or authorized After-Sale
Technical Service. Replacement is recommended using a qualified company in order to prevent any risk.
The outdoor heat pump supply cable (not supplied) must be suitable for outdoor installation and must have at least a flexible
polychloroprene sheath (code IEC:60245 IEC 57 / CENELEC:H05RN-F).
The appropriate cable section can be 2.5 - 4 mm
2
, to be checked depending on the specific installation conditions.
The boiler and heat pump must be earthed.
Wiring external to the boiler must be in accordance with the current IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671).
If the boiler is locked out and an error code is shown on the display, the
RESET
button can be pressed to try and clear the fault.
If the fault still occurs after pressing the
RESET
button, then contact an approved engineer or Alpha service support department.
