Electrical Connection For Gas Cooktop
The cooktop fitted with a tripolar electrical supply cord which are
designed to be used alternating current .According to the indications on
the rating plate located under the cooktop. The earthing wire can be
identified by its yellow-green colour.
In the case of installation over a built-in electric oven, the electrical
connections for the cooktop and oven should be independent, not only
for safe purpose, but also be convenient to remove them in the future.
Fit the supply cord with a standard plug for the demand rate indicated
on the rating plate or connect it directly to the electrical mains. In the
latter case, a single pole switch must be placed between the cooktop
and the mains, with a minimum opening between the contacts of
0.12inch in compliance with current safety codes(the earthing wire must
not be interrupted by the switch). The power supply cord must be posi-
tioned so that it does not reach a temperature in excess of 122°F than
room temperature at any point.
Before actual connection make sure that:
● The fuse and electrical system can withstand the load required by the
cooktop;
● The electrical supply system is equipped with an efficient earth
hook-up according to the norms and regulations prescribed by law;
● The plug or switch are easily accessible.
