20 INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL PUBLICATION DATE 03/02 504 766
PROTECTION WITH EARTH LEAKAGE TRIPS
To increase the safety of the operating personnel and / or servicemen during the maintenance work
and operation with electric devices it is recommended to mount in front of the supply cable in the laundry
switchboard an earth leakage trip according to fig. 4.4.A, preferably with an actuating current 30 mA.
The main contacts of the earth leakage trip must comply with the specified power input of the machine.
Specification of the earth leakage trip for individual machine types is illustrated in tab. 4.4.D.

Tab.4.4.D
The machine control circuits are supplied by a dividing transformer; the earth leakage trip is determined for
strong electric circuits i.e. motors, heating elements, motor contactors, circuit breaker, main switch etc., see
the inner connecting diagram list „A“ supplied with the machine.
SUPPLY CABLE CONNECTION TO THE MACHINE
CABLE PREPARATION
Use a cable or cord with copper conductors for the connection. Adapt the conductor ends according the fig. 4.4.B.
WARNING !
THE PROTECTIVE CONDUCTOR MUST BE LONGER SO THAT WHEN THE CABLE IS PULLED OUT
ACCIDENTALLY, THIS CONDUCTOR IS DISCONNECTED AS THE LAST ONE!
WARNING !
THE WASHER EXTRACTOR IS INTENDED TO BE PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO FIXED WIRING.
When using the cable (hard copper conductors), strip individual cores in such way to avoid the protrusion of
a stripped part from the terminal when the conductor is connected into the device (6) - dimension X. When
using a cord (stranded copper conductors), the individual cores can be stripped in the same way as in the
case of a cable, or you can use moulded tubes (6).
To avoid a contact to a part under tension after the conductor connection even when the main switch is off,
use tubes with an insulated neck on the conductors ends.
