INFORMATION
Electrical Safety and Advice Regarding
Supplementary Electrical Protection
Commercial kitchens and foodservice areas
are environments where electrical appliances
may be located close to liquids, or operate
in and around damp conditions, or where
restricted movement for installation and
service is evident.
The installation and periodic inspection of
the appliance should only be undertaken by
a qualified, skilled and competent electrician;
and connected to the correct power supply
suitable for load as stipulated by the
appliance data label.
The electrical installation and connections
should meet the necessary requirements
to local electrical wiring regulations and
electrical safety guidelines.
We recommend:-
• Supplementary electrical protection with
the use of a type B residual current device
(RCD)
• Fixed wiring appliances incorporate a
locally situated switch disconnector to
connect to, which is easily accessible for
switching off and safe isolation purposes.
The switch disconnector must meet the
specification requirements of IEC 60947.
FOR UK ONLY
Your attention is drawn to:
- BS 7671:2018–Guidance Note 8 - 8.13 :
Other locations of increased risk
It is recognized that there may be locations
of increased risk of electric shock other than
those specifically addressed in Part 7 of BS
7671. Examples of such locations could
include laundries where there are washing
and drying machines in close proximity and
water is present, and commercial kitchens
with stainless steel units, where once again,
water is present.
Where because of the perception of
additional risks being likely, the installation
designer decides that an installation
or location warrants further protective
measures, the options available include:
1 • GENERAL REMINDERS

• Automatic Disconnection of Supply (ADS)
by means of a residual current device having
a residual operating current not exceeding
30mA;
• Supplementary protective equipotential
bonding; and
• Reduction of maximum fault clearance
time.

CONTRACT
To obtain maximum performance from this
unit regular servicing of the appliance should
be undertaken to ensure correct operation, it
is functioning as intended, and safe to use.
Visits may then be made at agreed intervals
to carry out adjustments and repairs.
Please refer to, and adhere to, the Care
and Cleaning recommendations in the
User Manual or to recommendations in the
Installation & Maintenance Manual.
The provision of RCDs and supplementary
bonding must be specified by the host
organization's appointed installation designer
or electrical contractor and installed by a
suitably qualified and competent electrician
so as to comply with Regulations 419.2 and
544.2
