qualified electrician, e.g. your local Electricity Board, or a
contractor who is on the roll of the National Inspection
Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC).

It is necessary that you install a double pole switch between
the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum
gap of 3 mm between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current
rules.

After installation and connecting, the cable must be placed
so that it cannot at any point reach a temperature of more
than 60°C above the ambient temperature.
Before the hob is connected, check that the main fuse and
the domestic installation can support the load; and that the
power supply is properly earthed.
The manufacturer disclaims any responsibility should these
safety measures not be carried out.
