1. General Information
These instructions should be read carefully and retained for further
reference and maintenance.
1
All Weathersafe Extreme products need to be fitted with waterproof
cable and conduit entries to maintain their IP rating once installed
2. Safety
• Before installation or maintenance, ensure the mains supply to
the switch, socket, spur or bell push unit is switched off and the
circuit supply fuses are removed or the circuit breaker turned off.
• It is recommended that a qualified electrician is consulted or used
for the installation of this IP66 rated switch, socket, spur or bell
push unit and install in accordance with the current IEE wiring
and Building Regulations.
• Check that the total load on the circuit including when this switch,
socket, spur or bell push unit is fitted does not exceed the rating of
the circuit cable, fuse or circuit breaker.
• Electricity can be dangerous; the use of an RCD should not be
regarded as a substitute for basic electrical safety precautions.
• Always test the RCD before use. If the test procedure is not
completed satisfactory or an appliance continues to trip the RCD
seek professional advice and switch off the appliance.
• To clean, use a clean dry cloth only. Do NOT use any liquid cleaners.
• During use warming of the enclosure is normal.
Wiring tests – Important (WXT104NP, WXT204NP & WXT205NP)
• Remove this product from the circuit if carrying out tests (as
described in the IEE Wiring Regulations) for earth loop impedance,
prospective short circuit current and insulation resistance.
• Use the enclosed warning label to ensure this is carried out.

Installation
1. IMPORTANT Switch off the electricity at the fuse box by removing
the relevant fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before
proceeding with the installation.
2. Using a Philips screwdriver, separate the faceplate from the back
box by removing the four tapped screws located in each corner.
See figure 1 & 2 for your chosen product.

3. Using the back plate as a template mark the position for the
holes. Note the back plate must be mounted in the correct
orientation, following the ‘TOP’ marking inside the back plate.
If the mounting position desired is uneven use a sheet of marine
ply as a base plate and fit the back box. Insert the rawl plugs into
the holes.
4. Drill the wall using a 4mm Ø drill bit making sure not to infringe
or compromise any gas, water pipes or cables.
5. The drain feature must be drilled out using a 5mm drill if the top
or side entry conduit is used. Opening this drain hole will reduce
the IP rating of the product. Remember – open out the lower
drain feature only, see figure 3.

6. Select the required entry point by unscrewing the appropriate
seal located on all four sides of the back box. If conduit is not
going to be used, a waterproof cable with suitable IP rated 20mm
cable glands to maintain the overall IP rating. If the bottom entry
conduit is used, there must be adequate drainage from the lowest
point of the conduit.
7. Follow suit using the same method depicted in stage 6 to create
an exit point for the output supply cable to follow through on.
8. Secure the back box to the wall using suitable screws for the rawl
plugs installed. Ensure that the back box is correctly orientated
following the ‘TOP’ marking which is labelled inside.
9. Pass though the 230V AC 50Hz mains supply cable and secure
the cables tightly to their respective terminals ensuring that all
bare conductors are sleeved and that correct polarity is observed,
see figure 4, 5 or 6 for the appropriate wiring diagram of your
chosen product. Note that if metal conduit is being used the earth
6 7
continuity between the conduits must be maintained.
10. Once the mains supply is connected to the correct terminals,
mount the face plate over the back box aligning the four screws
from the face plate to the four mounting holes on the back box.
Tighten until secured.

5.2 WXT104NP, WXT204NP and WXT205NP Testing & Usage
To test: Ensure supply is connected
RESET – press the grey (blue for WXT205NP) button marked
Reset (R), the status indicator should show red.
Test – Press the Red Test button marked (T), the status indicator
12 13
should show Green. This indicates the RCD has been tripped and
power has been disconnected.
RESET – press the grey (blue for WXT205NP) button marked
reset (R) again; the status indicator should show red.
If all the above operations work satisfactory, the RCD is safe for use.
If this test procedure is not completed to a satisfactory standard,
do not use the RCD and seek professional advice.
In applications such as hand driers it may not be practical to expect
each user to test before use. In this case we suggest an appropriate
person applies the test routine twice a day.
After satisfactory testing the RCD, any connected appliance may
be switched on, and used in the confidence that the user is protected
from electric shock by rapid disconnection of the supply.
