Electrical Connection
WARNING: Electric Shock Hazard!
The connection to the electricity supply,
and any eventual alterations to the domestic wiring system, must only be
made by a licensed electrician and following all applicable regulations in
force. Connection to an appropriately earthed wiring system is essential and
mandatory. Failure to follow this advice may result in electric shock or death.
Before the Electrical Connection
Before connecting the cooktop to the mains power supply, the installer must
check and ensure that:
• The domestic wiring system is suitable for the power drawn by the cooktop
(see page 33).
• The supply system has an effective earth connection, corresponds to the
standards in force, and has a system impedance of no more than 0.427
ohm. If necessary, please consult your electricity provider for system
impedance information.
• The voltage corresponds to the value given on the appliance rating plate.
• The power supply cable sections can withstand the load specified on the
rating plate.
• The circuit breaker can be reached easily when the appliance is installed.
• The power supply cord is in good working order. (A damaged cord must
be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified service technician in order to
avoid a hazard.)
• The electrical circuit for the appliance incorporates an isolating switch
providing full disconnection from the power supply.
Installation (Cont.)
Power Supply Cord
• The power supply cord must be so positioned that no point can reach a
temperature of 50°C higher than the ambient temperature.
• The power cord must not be bent or compressed. The cord can be looped,
if necessary, but make sure that is not kinked or trapped when the cooktop
is in position.
• Care must be taken to avoid the cable being in contact with hot parts of the
appliance.
• If the appliance is to be connected directly to the mains electricity supply,
an omnipolar circuit breaker must be installed with a minimum gap of 3mm
between the contacts.
•
IMPORTANT:
The appliance must NOT be connected to the mains supply
by means of a 10A cord and plug.
