Electrical Safety
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following: You must check all electrical equipment
and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and
damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current
Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD(Residual Current Device) is used
with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD together with portable products that are plugged into an electrical supply
not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a RCD by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also
read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The
Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by
a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The
Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance
and the safety of the appliance operator.
If in doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply.
See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs for wear and damage, and power connections to
ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6.
Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power
supply to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp
plug may require a fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain products, see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7.
DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8.
DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9.
DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired
by a qualified electrician. A U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case of damage,
cut off and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(UK only - see diagram at right).
Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the grEEn/yElloW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the broWn live wire to live terminal ‘l’.
c) Connect the bluE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘n’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly
connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products are often fitted with live (BROWN) and neutral (BLUE) wires only. Double insulated products are always
marked with this symbol . To re-wire, connect the brown and blue wires as indicated above.
Do noT connect the brown or blue
to the earth terminal.
1.1.10.
Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD
fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cable on the reel is
important. Use at least 1.5mm² section cable, but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is suitable for this product
and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm² section cable.
