If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it
should be cut off and an appropriate 3-pin plug fitted in its
place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value
of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the
distribution board should not be greater than 5A.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a 13A
socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
BLUE - "NEUTRAL" ("N")
BROWN - "LIVE" ("L")
GREEN & YELLOW - "GROUND" ("G")
1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "G"
or by the Ground symbol
or coloured GREEN or GREEN
AND YELLOW.
2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which
is marked with the letter "N" or coloured BLACK.
3. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal
which marked with the letter "L" or coloured RED.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord
grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply
over the three wires.
