INSTALLATION
3. Remove the rubber seal from the cable gland and thread it over the cable of the appliance to
be fitted. At this stage leave the gland cover and rubber seal loose on the cable.
4. Remove the central PCB locating screw that locates the printed circuit board and store in a
safe place.
5. Unclip and remove the circuit board, placing it on a clean dry surface.
6. Undo (slacken) the two screws that locate the cable clamp and insert the cable through the
cable clamp. At this stage leave the cable clamp loose.
7. Undo (slacken) the three screws on the cable block to be connected.
8. IMPORTANT: Please also see diagram cable preparation for correct identification of
earth, neutral and live cables.
•Insert the Yellow/green (E) Earth cable and secure with the cable block screw.
•Insert the Blue (N) Neutral cable and secure with the cable block screw.
•Insert the Brown (L) Live cable and secure with the cable block screw.
•Double insulated appliances do not have a earth cable.
Now repeat this process for all the appliances to be connected at this time.
9. When the mains input and ALL the appliances to be connected have been connected and are
in place, replace the circuit board into the Switchbox (gently pulling the cables through the
gland) and secure with the central PCB locating screw.
10. The cable clamps can now be secured with the two screws to ensure there is no
wiring movement.
11. Insert the rubber seal that was previously threaded onto the cable into the seal grip on the
cable gland. (see gland detail diagram)
12. Screw and hand tighten the cable gland cover that was previously threaded onto the
cable to the cable gland.
Now repeat this process for all the appliances to be fitted at this time.
13. Ensuring that the recessed Switchbox cover seal is located, place the cover onto the box and
secure with the four screws at the back of the box.
14. Identify the appliances installed with the labels provided in the recess above the relevant
switch to enable clear identification when the box is in use.
15. The unit can now be placed on the fixing bracket provided by sliding the box vertically
down onto the bracket.
See power status indicator lights diagram page 2 for status of the Switchbox when the power is
supplied to the unit.
INSTALLATION
FUSE REPLACEMENT
See power status indicator lights diagram page 2 for status of the Switchbox fuses.
If one of the fuses fails the power indicator will not light on the switch that has failed.
Please note that if the power supply to the switchbox has been switched off or interrupted due
to the RCD circuit breaker or fuse from the mains supply isolating the box none of the indicator
lights will illuminate.
Before replacing the fuse please check the manufacturer’s manual of the appliance that has
caused the fuse to blow. The product may be faulty and in need of replacement or servicing by
the manufacturer
IMPORTANT: Always switch off the mains power and isolate the Switchbox before
removing the cover.
1. Remove the Switchbox from its mounting bracket by lifting in a vertical action.
2. Remove the four cover locating screws from the back of the box.
3. Having identified which switch fuse has blown (5 amp for switch 1 or 1.5 amp for
subsequent switches), remove the blue fuse cover and gently remove the fuse with an
electrical screwdriver.
4. Gently push the new fuse into place and replace the fuse cover (see page 2 for
replacement fuse codes)
5. Replace the box cover ensuring that the cover seal is in place with the four screws at
the back of the box.
6. Slide the Switchbox vertically down onto the locating bracket.
MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that once a season the cover seal and rubber buttons are checked for wear
and damage to ensure that a safe weatherproof seal is maintained.
If signs of wear are shown, remove and replace the parts (spares codes and descriptions
page 2). These should be readily available from your retailer.
