Electrisaver User and Installation Instructions
The Electrisaver push button boost timer can be used to control immersion elements and other electrical appliances up to 3kW or as an override/extension timer for central heating systems. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A SUITABLY QUALIFIED PERSON AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CURRENT EDITION OF THE IEE WIRING REGULATIONS. WARNING : ISOLATE MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE COMMENCING INSTALLATION ENSURE THE UNIT IS PROPERLY EARTHED.
Installation Means of disconnection from the supply having at least 3mm contact separation in both poles must be incorporated in the fixed wiring. We recommend a separate fused circuit from the consumer unit (24 Hour supply) protected by a 15 amp HRC fuse or, preferably a 16 amp MCB. In some cases immersion heater failure can damage the Electrisaver. Installation of a 100 mA RCD will provide additional protection for the unit. If the Electrisaver is to be connected to a ring main then the spur feeding the controller should be protected in the same way. The Electrisaver is NOT suitable for mounting on an unearthed metal surface. Surface Wall Mounting The Electrisaver is suitable for mounting directly on to any surface mounted single gang moulded box having a minimum depth of 28mm. Cable entry being through the most convenient cut-out.
Flush Wall Mounting The Electrisaver can be mounted directly to any standard 35mm deep flush mounting single gang wiring box complying with BS4662
THE ELECTRISAVER SHOULD BE KEPT IN ITS SEALED PACK UNTIL ALL DUST AND DEBRIS HAVE BEEN CLEARED AWAY PRIOR TO MAKING CONNECTIONS.
Connections Use twin and earth cable with a minimum conductor size of 2.5mm2 to connect the Electrisaver to the supply. Use a suitably rated three-core flexible cord (see below) to connect the Electrisaver to the appliance to be switched. For appliances up to 2kW rating use minimum 1.0mm2 conductors. For appliances up to 3kW rating use minimum 1.5mm2 conductors. Heat resistant flexible cord must be used if connecting the Electrisaver to an immersion heater. Connections to the Electrisaver terminal block should be as follows:N in N out L in L out = = = = Neutral in Neutral out to appliance Live in Live out to appliance

Remove cut-outs before fixing the box. Where appropriate drill the box to provide close fitting entry for cables and heat-resistant flexible cords. Take care to remove sharp edges. All un-insulated earth conductors must be sleeved and connected to the earth terminals on the back of the Electrisaver. The supply Earth conductor and appliance Earth conductor must use the separate terminal connections provided. Clamp all surface wiring to the wall adjacent to the Electrisaver or use trunking where appropriate. The flexible cord to the appliance should be passed through the cable entry hole in the bottom edge of the Electrisaver, and secured under the cable clamp provided. Ensure that the clamp is positioned the right way up ie. the projections on the underside of the clamp should grip the cord in order to secure the cable firmly, the cable clamp screws must be adequately tightened. Carefully offer the Electrisaver to the moulded/metal box and secure using two M3.5 captive screws provided. Do not damage insulation or trap the conductors during this operation. Finally switch on the mains supply, ensure the Electrisaver operates correctly.
