curve C for the electrical heating and domestic water
back-ups (see tables on page 37).
The electrical installation must necessarily be equipped
with a 30mA differential protection.
This appliance is designed to operate under a nominal
voltage of 230 V +/- 10%, 50 Hz.
5.1.2 General remarks on electrical connections
It is essential to maintain the live-neutral polarity when
making the electrical connections.
Rigid wires are preferable for xed installations,
particularly in a building.
Tighten the cables using the cable glands to prevent the
conductors from disconnecting accidentally.
Connection to Earth and Earth bonding continuity are
essential.
• Connecting to screw terminals
" The use of round terminal or the ends is
prohibited
- Always select a rigid wire that complies with the
prevailing standards.
- Strip away around 25 mm from the end of the wire.
- With round end pliers, form a loop with a diameter
corresponding to the tightening screws on the terminal.
- Tighten the terminal screw rmly onto the loop created.
Unsufcient tightening can cause overheating, leading
to breakdown or even a re.
