A cord clamp bushing is provided on
the dryer, and should be tightened on
completion of wiring. The electrical main
terminals are located behind the small rear
access panel (terminal block cover), and
connections should be made in accordance
with the terminal markings. Remember to
reinstall the terminal access panel (terminal
block cover).
NOTE: In accordance with the European
EMC Directive (2004/108/EC), the maximum
electricity supply system impedance to which
the electric dryer should be connected is
declared to be 0.01 + J 0.007 Ohms.
The Single Load Electric Dryer is supplied
without an electric cord and plug. It must be
connected by a competent electrician to a
single-phase electricity supply at the voltage
shown on the dataplate, using a suitable xed
wiring installation in accordance with local and
national wiring regulations.
A 3-wire circular cord of minimum
conductor size 2.5 mm² cross-section area
should be used.
A 30A supply fuse should be used, and
a switch having a contact separation in
both poles that provides full disconnection
under over-voltage category III conditions
must be incorporated into the fixed wiring
in accordance with local wiring regulations.
The dryer should be positioned so that the
disconnection switch is easily accessible to
the user.

electricity supply system impedance to which
the electric dryer should be connected is
declared to be 0.302 Ohm + j0.189 Ohm.
If codes permit and an additional Earth
bond wire is used, it is recommended that a
qualied electrician determine that the Earth
bond path is adequate.
AUSTRALIA ONLY
For Australia, each single electric dryer is
tted with a cord and plug, with conductors
of 2.5 mm² cross sectional area, and should
be plugged into a suitable electrical socket at
the voltage shown on the dataplate. Do not
use extension lead assemblies on commercial
installations. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced with a specially terminated
cord by an authorized service agent or a
similarly qualied person in order to avoid a
hazard. Each electric dryer for other countries
is supplied without an electric cord and plug.
Recommended Earthing Method
It is the responsibility of the homeowner to
contact a qualied electrical installer to make
sure the electrical installation is adequate
and in conformance with all local codes and
ordinances.
