General Installation Instructions
- If using the new product to replace an old one, note the cable connec- tions and wire up new product in the same way as the old one, with Earthing as stated in these instructions.
- Ensure the mounting box (metal or plastic) for either flush or surface mounting is the appropriate size for the product.
- Route the cable through the most suitable entry point of the mounting box. If a metal box is used a protective cable grommet should be used.
- Strip the cable to the dimensions in the diagram.
- Connect the inner conductor under the central plate and screw. Se- curely clamp the screening braid under the clamp, ensuring that there are no loose conductor strands that may cause short circuits. To assist with the correct installation of this product please consult the wiring diagram.
- When tightening the screening braid clamp ensure that the cable is firmly gripped and that the inner insulation is not squashed beyond a slight oval shape. Always tighten the terminal screws securely, but do not overtighten them.
- 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 work has been completed correctly, the product is ready for use.
Note – If your installation uses a four lug metal mounting box, remove the top and bottom lugs or bend fully back.
Care
- To maintain the high quality appearance of decorative finish switches and sockets, BG Electrical recommend the use of a soft cloth periodically to clean the front face. When installing a decorative product please ensure that the wall is decorated, finished and free of moisture prior to installa- tion.
- BG Electrical recommends avoiding using, but not restricted to, these substances from becoming in contact with the decorative metal front-plates when cleaning or decorating:
- Adhesive tape, including low tack masking tape
- Solvents
- White spirit
- Multi surface cleaners
- Industrial multipurpose cleaning wipes
- Wet wipes
- Using items like those listed above may cause a degrading effect to the front-plates lacquer/plated finish, although the function will remain unaffected.
