6 For surface cable entry remove the appropriate
knockout and ensure one of the cable clamps is
positioned correctly.
7 Connections to the unit should be made as shown
below:
If the control circuits are to operate at 240V then
terminals L, 1 and 4 must be linked, ensuring that the
cable is sheathed and of a size to carry the required
load current.
If the control circuits are operating at voltages other
than 230V then terminals 1 and 4 should be connected
to the required power supply and not to terminal L.
5 Surface cable entries to the unit can be made from
above, below or from the lefthand side. Conduit or
recessed cable entry is through the aperture in the
rear moulding.
8. Upon completion of wiring, plug in the ribbon cable
ensuring the polarised plug is fully inserted into the
socket. Refi t the front half of the timeswich ensuring
correct alignment and that no cables are trapped before
re-tightening the screws.
