Fuse and mains plug replacement
This product is supplied with a moulded plug which
contains a 13A fuse. If you are simply replacing the
fuse, you must use a 13A fuse which has been
approved by ASTA to BS1362 (Figure 19).
NOTE: Never use without fuse cover fitted.
If the plug does not fit the socket or becomes
damaged, a new plug must be fitted. Replace the
original plug with the correct plug for your socket. If
this is a 3-pin (square pin) 13A (BS1363) plug, you
must make sure that it is fitted with an ASTA
approved 13A fuse.
If another type of plug is used, it must be protected
by a 15A fuse, either in the plug or at the
distribution board.
1. Cut off the existing fitted plug.
2. The wires in the mains lead supplied with this
appliance are coloured in accordance with the
following code (Figure 20):
GREEN/YELLOW = EARTH (E)
BLUE = NEUTRAL (N) BROWN = LIVE (L)
This product must be earthed.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may
not correspond with the colour markings identifying
the terminals in your new plug, proceed as follows.
The wire which is coloured YELLOW/GREEN or
GREEN must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter E or
E
symbol or coloured
YELLOW/GREEN or GREEN.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be
connected to the terminal in the plug which is
marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or
BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be
connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
3. Ensure that the connections are tight and that no
loose strands are left out of the terminals.
IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN.
If the mains lead becomes damaged consult a
qualified electrician.
