ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and
comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before each use, to ensure that they are safe. You must
inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors for wear or damage.
You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate
safety devices; A residual current circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main
distribution board. We also recommend that a residual current device (RCD) is used. It is
particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply
which is not protected by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician.
Connecting to the power supply:
The Smartmaster Digital starter / chargers are supplied without a plug fitted, they should
not be connected to a standard 13A supply; Consult the technical specification table
(page 9) for the required rating, if in doubt contact a qualified electrician. Before using
the starter / charger, inspect all the leads and plugs to ensure that none are damaged. If
any damage is visible have the starter / charger inspected / repaired by a suitably qualified
person.
The wires for the plug are coloured in the following way
:
Yellow / green Earth
Blue Neutral
As the colours of the wires may not correspond with the markings in your plug, pro-
ceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured brown, must be connected to the terminal, which is
marked L or coloured red (or brown).
The wire which is coloured blue, must be connected to the terminal marked with N or
coloured black (or blue).
The wire which is coloured yellow / green should be connected to the terminal which is
coloured the same or marked with this symbol
Always secure the wires in the plug terminal carefully and tightly.
Secure the cable in the cord grip carefully and securely.
Warning: Never connect live or neutral wires to the earth terminal of the
plug. Only fit an approved plug with the correct rated fuse. If in
doubt consult a qualified electrician.
