Guidance Notes:
The total load must not exceed the rating of the incoming device or the assigned assembly rating (InA) whichever is the lower. Each neutral and earth
connection must correspond numerically to its outgoing way. Additional blanks (ref. JK01B) are available to cover spare ways.
A pack is provided to label this garage board, please consult us for spares or replacements.
Operating Instruction leaflet is provided overleaf. This leaflet should be left for the end user.
Single conductors below 1.5mm2 need to be doubled back in the terminal bar.
Precautions need to be taken to prevent faults to earth on the supply side of the RCD (as per BS7671 regulation 531.4.1)
IP Ratings:
Cable access into the garage board must maintain the integrity so far as reasonably practicable. In essence, for surfaces accessible after installation, this
means maintaining the requirement for the horizontal top surface of the enclosure to provide a degree of protection as detailed in fig 1 and fig 2. For rear
cable access, the minimum number of knockout(s) shall be removed.
Warranty
This distribution board is offered with a 24 month warranty against defective material or manufacture. If a warranty claim is necessary, please call the
technical support number given at the bottom of the page and we will be pleased to help.
For dimensional information and weights please consult the Hager catalogue.
