IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND ADVICE REGARDING SUPPLEMENTARY ELECTRICAL

PROTECTION

Commercial kitchens and foodservice areas are environments where electrical appliances may be located close to liquids, or operate in and around damp conditions or where restricted movement for installation and service is evident.

The installation and periodic inspection of the appliance should only be undertaken by a qualified, skilled and competent electrician; and connected to the correct power supply suitable for the load as stipulated by the appliance data label.

The electrical installation and connections should meet the necessary requirements to the local electrical wiring regulations and any electrical safety guidelines.

We recommend:-

• Supplementary electrical protection with the use of a type A residual current device (RCD)

• Fixed wiring appliances incorporate a locally situated switch disconnector to connect to, which is easily

accessible for switching off and safe isolation purposes. The switch disconnector must meet the specification requirements of IEC 60947.

Your attention is drawn to:BS 7671:2018–Guidance Note 8 - 8.13 : Other locations of increased risk

It is recognized that there may be locations of increased risk of electric shock other than those specifically addressed in Part 7 of BS 7671. Examples of such locations could include laundries where there are washing and drying machines in close proximity and water is present, and commercial kitchens with stainless steel units, where once again, water is present.

Where because of the perception of additional risks being likely, the installation designer decides that an installation or location warrants further protective measures, the options available include:

• Automatic Disconnection of Supply (ADS) by means of a residual current device having a residual

operating current not exceeding 30mA;

• Supplementary protective equipotential bonding; and

• Reduction of maximum fault clearance time.

The provision of RCDs and supplementary bonding must be specified by the host organization’s appointed installation designer or electrical contractor and installed by a suitably qualified and competent electrician so as to comply with Regulations 419.2 and 544.2

1.2 SITING

The appliance should be installed on a level, fireproof surface, in a well lit and draught free position. If floor is constructed of combustible material, local fire requirements should be checked to ensure compliance. A

clear space of 150mm should be left between rear and side of unit and any non-combustible wall. If this is not possible these surfaces should be clad in a suitable non-combustible, heat-insulating material. Close

attention be paid to fire regulations.

1.3 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

The units are suitable for AC supplies only. The E3441/E3441R models are for use on single phase supplies only. E3481/E3481R models can be operated on single phase or alternatively on a 2 phase supply.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHEDSUPPLY CONNECTION

A suitable mains input cable should be fitted that conforms to code designation 60245 IEC 57, cable type H07RN-F.

A suitably rated isolating switch with contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles must be installed and wiring executed in accordance with relevant regulations.

Access to mains terminal block is gained by removing control panel.

E3481/E3481R

Links should be inserted as detailed in Figure 1 to convert from two phase to single phase supply. Consideration must be given to required draw of current.

ELECTRICAL MAINTENANCE WARNING:

BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTENANCE, ISOLATE APPLIANCE AT MAIN SWITCH AND TAKE STEPS TO ENSURE THAT IT IS NOT INADVERTENTLY SWITCHED ON.

MAINTENANCE CHECK

Regular servicing of the appliance should be undertaken to ensure correct operation, it is functioning as intended, and safe to use. We recommend servicing after 2,500 hours of use, or annually, whichever comes first.

Any maintenance schedule should be carried out in accordance with SFG20 Maintenance Schedules. Should any issues with the integrity of the components be identified these should be

replaced. If the appliance is not considered safe the unit should be removed from service and the responsible person advised why the unit is not safe to use and what remedial action is needed. Contents of the maintenance schedule should be agreed with the maintenance provider.

The plate is very heavy, so care must be exercised when lifting it up to carry out maintenance. The initial lifting points are through side holes of splash guard. A suitable batten of wood should be inserted between plate and front hob rail to support the weight.

Rest plate upon a batten and take a strong grip below plate front edge. Raise to the desired angle for access. Place a wooden prop to support the weight below plate. Ensure prop is secured to prevent accidental slipping. Ensure unit base, which is considerably lighter than plate, cannot move during lifting. When ordering spares, please quote model number, serial number and voltage as stated on data plate.
