5.2 Planning the electrical installation
Meaning
It is crucial to the safe and reliable operation of the appliance that the electrical system is installed
carefully and correctly. All the rules and regulations listed here, and the described procedure, must be
strictly followed.
Rules for safe electrical installation of the appliances
Observe the following rules to prevent hazards caused by faulty electrical connections:
The electrical supply must be connected in accordance with applicable local regulations of the
professional associations and of the relevant power supply company.
The case of the appliance must be grounded in a suitable manner.
If two microwave combination ovens are installed in a stacking kit, both cases of the appliances and
the stacking kit itself must be grounded in a suitable manner.
For microwave combination ovens on a wheeled platform, the length of the mains power lead must
accommodate the degree of movement allowed to the appliance by the retaining device on the
wheeled platform. When moving the assembly (platform plus appliance), never place the mains
power lead under tension.
All electrical connections must be checked when the appliance is prepared for first-time use to ensure
cables are laid correctly and connections are made properly.
