Wiring Instructions
Power Off
Before commencing work always isolate the power at the consumer unit/ fuse
box.
- Note – If your installation uses a four-lug metal mounting box, remove the top and bottom lugs or bend fully back.
Replacing an existing accessory
-
Unscrew the accessory from the wall/mounting box.
-
Note the cable connections:
The illustration shows 1 wire of each colour connected to each terminal. There should be an additional connection between the mounting box earth terminal and the accessory earth terminal. -
Unscrew each terminal to release the wire.
New installation
- Install mounting box (metal or moulded) for either flush or surface mounting, ensuring appropriate size of product.
- Select the most suitable entry point of the mounting box (knock-out) and route the cables through. If a metal box is used, a cable grommet should be fitted to the entry point.
- Cables should be prepared so a sufficient conductor length reaches the terminals. Strip the ends of the individual conductors leaving an adequate length bare to enter terminals.
Connection (See diagram)
Follow the wiring diagram provided in the user manual to connect the live, neutral, and earth wires. Ensure that the connections are tight and secure.
- Line up the new accessory to mounting box and take note of where each terminal is located.
- Connect each wire to the matching terminal. An earth connection should always be made between the mounting box earth terminal and the accessory earth terminal, where fitted. All bare earth wires must be sheathed with green/yellow sleeving. When connecting the new accessory ensure that only the bare end of the wire enters the terminal and no bare wires are visible.
- Tighten terminal screws securely. (Do not over tighten)
- This socket is fitted with two linked terminals to provide a dual earth facility. This is for use in “clean” installations where additional earth capacity is required to comply with Regulation 607 IEE Wiring Regulations
Complete Installation & Test
- Carefully position the accessory into the mounting box, ensuring that no wires are trapped between the plate and the wall and secure with screws (do not over tighten) then insert screw covers (optional).
- Once the installation has been completed correctly, replace the fuse/reset MCB (trip), switch the power back on at the consumer unit, and test.
Installation
- First, identify a suitable area for the push button to be positioned. Ideally, this should be sheltered from rain or excess heat. It would be recommended that the button is fitted to the door frame itself, so you are able to screw directly into the woodwork, making the installation simple.
- Place a small flathead screwdriver into the slotted hole and gently twist to remove push button back
- Offer the push button backing up to the wall and drill holes. If fitting to masonry, use a 6mm drill bit, as per the depressions and securing by using the supplied rawl plugs and screws. If fitting directly to the woodwork, use a 2mm drill bit and screw directly into frame or use the provided sticky pad.
- Pull plastic tab from under battery to power the push button.
- Refit the push button to the secured backing by offering up the button of the push button and gently pushing back together.
