Installation instructions
These products should be installed by a competent person (eg. qualified electrician) in accordance with these instructions and in compliance with the appropriate clauses of the current edition of the IEE wiring regulations. Sockets should be connected via a suitable RCD device.
Disconnect the mains electricity supply.
The Weathersafe range is designed to be mounted on a vertical flat surface, with socket outlets not more than 1.5 metres above the ground (this does not apply to switches).
To remove rockers from WPL range prise off using a flat blade screwdriver (figure 1). Use a piece of cloth or similar to prevent marking the unit. This allows access to the four fixing screws.
The rear box shall be mounted on the wall using four no.8 wood screws.
If conduit is to be used then please follow the instructions below:
The drain feature must be drilled out using a 5mm drill if top or side entry conduit is used. Opening this drain hole will reduce the IP rating of the product.
If bottom entry conduit is used, there must be adequate drainage from the lowest point of the conduit.
With relevant cable entry cover removed. A waterproof cable or conduit entry must then be fitted in its place, and sealed using the washer supplied.
If two cable entry positions are used with metal conduit, then earth continuity between the conduits must be maintained.
If a product is installed with a built in isolating switch, then the live and neutral supply must be connected to the relevant terminal on the isolating switch. The protective conductor must be connected to the earth terminal on the product. There are spare terminals in the rear box for connecting earth loops.
All WPL switch products are provided with a neon locator for locating the product in the dark (This is the only intended use for this neon). To enable the neon to remain lit irrespective of switch state the neon must be wired to a permanent L and N feed.
Ensure that the gasket is correctly fitted, and tighten the four screws to fix the front cover in place. Do not overtighten. Use of an electric screw driver is not recommended.
Operating instructions
For products with built in isolator:
To open the box lid, wipe off excess water from top surface, turn the isolator switch to the off position (O position) and then open lid.
The box is opened by depressing the tab on the front (see figure 2).
Once the box lid is open, the isolating lever should not be turned back to the on position.
Plugs may then be inserted into the sockets, and the socket switches turned on.
Cleaning
Care should be taken when cleaning this product.
Inside the lid should only be cleaned with a clean dry cloth.
The outside can be cleaned with a mild detergent.
Solvent based cleaners should not be used.
Advice should be sought before installing this product in an environment where it is likely to be subjected to chemicals, oils or solvents.
Service items
The gaskets, neons, lid seals and cable seals are sold separately.
Replacement of the gasket on all products except for the switches is straightforward as it is a direct replacement.
Switch products have an integral gasket and membrane. Should only the gasket need to be replaced, cut into the four positions shown in figure 6.
If the membrane needs to be replaced then the switch assembly needs to be removed from it’s mounting plate. Care should be taken not to strip the screws and that a watertight joint is maintained between switch assembly, membrane and mounting plate (figure 7).
