ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The supply cable must conform to relevant
tables in current IEE regulations. In most cases
1mm
2
twin and earth will be adequate.
The electrical rating of the shower is on the
rating label within the unit.
SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY AT THE
MAINS.
Cable entry points are shown in
fig.1
. Conduit
entry can only be from the rear.
Route the cable into the shower, taking care to
avoid the area of the wall fixings and connect to
the terminal block
(fig.19)
as follows:
Earth cable to terminal marked
E
Neutral cable to terminal marked
N
Live cable to terminal marked
L
IMPORTANT:
Fully tighten the terminal block
screws and check that no cable insulation is
trapped under the screws.
Note:
The supply cable earth conductor must
be sleeved.
The earth continuity conductor of the electrical
installation must be effectively connected
electrically to all exposed metal parts of other
appliances and services in the room in which the
shower is to be installed, to conform to current
IEE regulations.
Note:
Fuses do not ensure user protection
against electric shock. In the interest of electrical
safety, all mains electric and pumped showers
should be fitted with a 30mA residual current
device (RCD). This may be part of the consumer
unit or a separate unit.
DO NOT switch on the electricity supply
until the water has been turned on to the
unit and connections have been tested for
leaks.
