Topaz T100siElectrical requirementsWARNING!This appliance must beearthedThe installation, supply cable and circuitprotection must conform with BS7671 (IEEwiring regulations) and be sufficient for theamperage required.The following notes are for guidance only:1 The shower must only be connected to a230-240V ac supply. If you are installing ashower with a kilowatt rating above 9kW, itis advisable to contact the local electricitysupply company.Shepperton Park,Triton Road, Nuneaton,Warwickshire, CV11 4NRPull cordisolating switchFig.3Fig.4 schematic of installation circuit1.1 The electrical rating of the shower is shownon the rating label (fig.3) within the unit.2 Before making any sort of electricalconnection within the installation makesure that no terminal is live. If in anydoubt, switch off the whole installation atthe consumer unit.3 The shower must be connected to its ownindependent electrical circuit. IT MUSTNOT be connected to a ring main, spur,socket outlet, lighting circuit or cookercircuit.3.1 The electrical supply must be adequatefor the loading of the unit and existingcircuits.4 Check your consumer unit (main fuse box)has a main switch rating of 80A or aboveand that it has a spare fuse way which willtake the fuse or miniature circuit breaker(mcb) necessary for the shower (fig.4).4.1 If your consumer unit has a rating below80A or if there is no spare fuse way, thenthe installation will not be straightforwardand may require a new consumer unitserving the house or just the shower.4.2 You will need to contact the localelectricity company. They will check thesupply and carry out what is necessary.They will also check the main bonding.5 The earth continuity conductor of theelectrical installation must be effectivelyconnected electrically to all exposed metalTable ARCD(can be part ofconsumer unit)ShowerunitCircuit protectionunitcartridgerating mcb fuse7.0kW 30/32A 30AFuse orMCB80A or 100Amain switchConsumerunitMetertailsMeterIncomingsupplyfuse7.5kW 32A 35A8.0kW 40A 35A8.5kW 40A 45A9.0kW 40A 45A9.5kW 40/45A 45A10.5kW 45A 45A

Theseparts include metal baths, radiators, waterpipes, taps and waste fittings.6 For close circuit protection do not use arewireable fuse. Instead use a suitably ratedMCB or cartridge fuse (see table A).6.1 In the interest of electrical safety a 30mAresidual current device (RCD) should beinstalled in all UK electric and pumpedshower circuits. This may be part of theconsumer unit or a separate unit.7 A 45 amp double pole isolating switchwith a minimum contact gap of 3mm inboth poles must be incorporated in thecircuit.7.1 It must have a mechanical indicatorshowing when the switch is in theOFF position, and the wiring must beconnected to the switch without the use ofa plug or socket outlet.7.2 The switch must be accessible and clearlyidentifiable, but out of reach of a personusing a fixed bath or shower, except forthe cord of a cord operated switch, andTable BTwin and earth PVC insulated cablecurrent carrying capacityinstalled in an in conduitinsulated wall or trunkingclipped direct orburied in a noninsulated wall6mm² 6mm ² 6mm²32A 38A 46A10mm² 10mm² 10mm²43A 52A 63A16mm² 16mm² 16mm²57A 69A 85Ashould be placed so that it is not possibleto touch the switch body while standingin a bath or shower cubicle. It should bereadily accessible to switch off after usingthe shower.8 Where shower cubicles are located in anyrooms other than bathrooms, all socketoutlets in those rooms must be protectedby a 30mA RCD.9 The current carrying capacity of the cablemust be at least that of the shower circuitprotection (see table B).9.1 To obtain full advantage of the powerprovided by the shower, use the shortestcable route possible from the consumerunit to the shower.9.2 It is also necessary to satisfy thedisconnection time and thermalconstraints which means that for any givencombination of current demand, voltagedrop and cable size, there is a maximumpermissible circuit length.10 The shower circuit should be separatedfrom other circuits by at least twice thediameter of the cable or conduit.10.1 The current rating will be reduced if thecabling is bunched with others, surroundedby thermal loft or wall insulation or placedin areas where the ambient temperatureis above 30°C. Under these conditions,derating factors apply and it is necessary toselect a larger cable size.10.2 In the majority of installations, thecable will unavoidably be placed in oneor more of the above conditions. Thisbeing so, it is strongly recommendedto use a minimum of 10mm cablingthroughout the shower installation.10.3 In any event, it is essential that individualsite conditions are assessed by a competentelectrician in order to determine thecorrect cable size and permissible circuitlength.Note: Cable selection is dependenton derating factors
