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 use of a 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.
