Connecting the Induction Hob to the Mains Power Supply
• The induction hob must be connected to the mains power only by a suitably qualified
electrician.
• Before connecting the hob to the mains power supply, check that:
1. The domestic wiring system is suitable for the power drawn by the hob.
2. The voltage corresponds to the value shown on the rating plate.
3. The mains cable sections can withstand the load specified on the rating plate.
• To connect the induction hob to the mains power supply, do not use adapters, reducers, or
branching devices, as they can cause overheating and fire.
• The mains cable must not touch any hot parts and must be positioned so that its temperature
will not exceed 75°C at any point.
• Check with an electrician whether your domestic wiring system is suitable without alterations.
• Any alterations must only be made by a qualified electrician.
• If the mains cable is damaged and needs to be replaced, the operation must be carried out by
a qualified person.
• If the induction hob is being connected directly to the mains, an omnipolar circuit-breaker
must be installed with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts.
• The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is
compliant with safety regulations.
• The mains cable must not be bent or compressed.
• The mains cable must be checked regularly and only replaced by a qualified person.
The power supply must be connected according to the relevant standard or connected to a
single-pole circuit breaker. The method of connection is shown below:
