Electrical connections to the electric pump



Electrical connections may only be performed by a qualified installer in compliance with current regulations.


Make sure that the supply voltage and frequency are compatible with the electrical panel. The relative information is
shown on the motor rating plate and in the documents supplied with the panel. Provide suitable short circuit protection

Before proceeding, make sure that all the connections (even if they are potential-free) are voltage-free.
Unless otherwise specified in local bylaws, the supply line must be fitted with:

a short circuit protection device

a high sensitivity residual current circuit breaker (30mA) for additional protection from electrocution in case of

inefficient grounding.

a general switch with a contact aperture of at least 3 millimetres.

Ground the system in compliance with current regulations.

Connect the electric pump to a supply line via a suitable electrical control panel.
The motor connection wiring diagram is shown at the end of this manual.


Install the electrical panel in a sheltered area.
Refer to the documentation supplied with the electrical panel.

For connections to any external control devices (e.g.: pressure switch, float) follow the instructions supplied with these devices.
