Electrical Information; Mounting Position - Herschel IRP4 Instrucciones De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION:

with overall load. The switch used to activate power to the Herschel IRP4 must be readily accessible.
The cable used to connect to the existing wiring should be correctly rated solid core wiring cable. Please
note that the use of flexible appliance cable with stranded conductors for permanent wiring (except for the
final connection between a cable outlet and the fixed equipment) is prohibited by IEE wiring regulations.
Where applicable, these regulations preclude the use of a 13A plug and socket for powering the
Herschel IRP4. For the final connection to the Herschel IRP4, only the flexible cable and cable entry supplied
with the unit must be used. The cable must connect to the supply in a suitable enclosure or cable
outlet designed for that purpose. The cable outlet current carrying capacity must be greater than the
recommended fuse current rating given in Table 1.
If the flexible cable is taken through a wall for connection purposes, suitable conduit or mechanical
protection must be used through the wall to protect the cable from mechanical damage within the wall. The
mounting position of the unit must ensure that any mechanical damage to the flexible cable is unlikely. Any
exposed flexible cable is to hang down (not tied UP) and must have adequate clearance from the heater to
prevent scorching or damaging the cable.
Colour coding used in the supplied mains cable: BROWN wire is to be connected to LIVE ('L'), the BLUE wire
to NEUTRAL ('N') and the GREEN/YELLOW wire to EARTH ('E').

MOUNTING POSITION:

The IRP4 must be located in a position to allow proper and efficient use but one that ensures hot parts are
not touched accidentally. The recommended installation height of the IRP4 is 2.5m to 3.5m (98"-138") from
the floor and under no circumstances is it to be installed at less than 1.8m (71") from the floor. In all cases
it should be installed at a height where it cannot be touched in operation. Consideration should be given to
any temporary or occasional additions such as stages or platforms, and the height should be adjusted
accordingly.
The Herschel IRP4 should be firmly and permanently attached using the brackets provided with a minimum
clearance of 125mm (4.9") between the top surface of the heater and the ceiling. Brackets must be attached
to a solid surface capable of supporting the weight of the heater (11.3kg).
Wiring to this unit must be connected in
accordance with the relevant national electrical
safety standards and must be earthed. The
electrical supply to the unit should be provided
by connecting to a circuit protected by a fuse or
miniature circuit breaker suitable for the electrical
rating of the unit and in accordance with Table 1.
The supply to the heater must be switched
separately using a switch appropriately rated for
the load and supply voltage, the switch must be
double pole (disconnecting both live and neutral
conductors) and form part of the fixed wiring in
the installation in accordance with applicable
wiring regulations.
Circuit protection should be rated in accordance
