In any case, respect the regulations in force for the connection of the
equipment to the low voltage network.
Before starting the electrical installation, check that the electrical requirements of the oven
and the power supply are the same.
For correct connection after positioning, you will need a cable with a length that allows you
to reach the connection point plus about 20cm, to make the connection on the back of the
equipment. Remove the rear plate from the equipment. Insert the cable through the cable
gland in the lower left-hand side of the oven (see rear panel).
Some Mychef ovens can be connected to different voltages and configurations at the time
of installation. To make the correct connection, use the terminal blocks supplied with the
equipment according to the instructions in the following subchapters. These terminal strips
are located between contacts 4 and 5 of the terminal block.
Figure 2. Terminal junction strips
Figure 3. Cable entry and terminals
Check, once the connection has been made, that no cable is loose, and they are all firmly
fastened. Also secure the cable gland.
Never connect a phase to neutral or ground. Check that the installation
voltages correspond to those of the equipment.
The following subchapters show the three types of possible connections for Mychef ovens.
