Please read the following information carefully before commencing installation. Before commencing any electrical work, to prevent the possibility of receiving an electric shock, ensure the mains isolator on the consumer unit is in the ‘OFF’ position and safely isolated in accordance with Best Practice Guide 3. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. The accessory plate must be installed in accordance with the latest IET Wiring Regulations, BS7671. If this product is being fitted as a replacement part to an existing installation account must be taken to the version of the wiring regulations it was installed to.
Installation Information
If replacing an existing accessory, check the layout of the existing terminals. When removing the cables from the terminals, note the cable connections in the terminal to ensure correct wiring of the new accessory. The mounting box must be of the correct size for the product, metal or plastic. If the back box has four lugs, then the top and bottom lugs will need to be bent back or removed. Please see Technical Information overleaf for minimum back box depth, range dependant. The cable must be routed through the most suitable entry point of the mounting box, taking note that a suitable protective grommet is recommended should a metal back box be used. Cables should be prepared to the appropriate lengths (as stated within these instructions) so that the conductor reaches into the terminal, and the circuit protective conductor is the longest. The terminals should be tightened to their appropriate torque value (2.0NM). Do not over tighten.
