IEC 947–1 and IEC 947-3 (International Electrotechnical Commission). The switch shall not be
incorporated in the mains supply cord.

Furthermore, to provide protection against excessive energy being drawn from the mains supply in case of
a fault in the equipment, an overcurrent protection device shall be installed.

• The Protective Conductor must be connected for safety reasons. Check that the power
cable has the proper Earth wire, and it is properly connected. It is not safe to operate this
unit without the Protective Conductor Terminal connected.
