Transport and storage
Note
If you store or transport the device improperly, the
device may be damaged.
Note the information regarding transport and storage of
the device.
Transport
To make the device easier to transport, it is fitted with a carry
handle.
Before transporting the device, observe the following:
• Disconnect the CEE plug of the supply line(1) from the
mains connection.
• Disconnect connected consumer from both CEE
couplings(4).
Storage
When the device is not being used, observe the following
storage conditions:
• dry and protected from frost and heat
• protected from dust and direct sunlight
• with a cover to protect it from invasive dust, if necessary
• The storage temperature is the same as the range given in
the Technical data chapter.
Start-up
Warning of electrical voltage
Work on the electrical components must only be
carried out by a qualified electrician!
Warning of electrical voltage
Before any work on the device, remove the mains plug
from the mains socket!
Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands.
Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable
out of the mains socket.
• Do not create tripping hazards when laying the power
cable or other electric cables when positioning the device.
If necessary, use cable bridges.
• Make sure that extension cables are unrolled completely.
• Do not cover the device.
• Do not place any further objects on the device.
• Insert the CEEplug into a properly secured socket.
Operation
Connecting the power distributor
Warning of electrical voltage
The device is not equipped with a residual current
device!
Only connect the device if you have ensured that a
residual current device is used in the mains
connection.
üThe two 3-pole circuit breakers(5, 6) are set to the switch
positionI.
1. Insert the CEEplug of the supply line(1) into a properly
secured CEEsocket provided with a fusing of32A.
2. Install the supply lines of the consumers to be connected.
Do not create tripping hazards when laying the cables.
3. Connect the consumers' supply lines to the CEE
couplings(4) of the power distributor. In doing so, make
sure to observe the performance characteristics specified
in the Technical data chapter.
Circuit breaker(s)
Each output of the device is equipped with a 3-pole circuit
breaker(5,6) which protect the connected lines and consumers
from overload and short circuit. Both circuit breakers (5, 6) and
the corresponding CEE couplings(4) are numbered 1 and 2.
Please proceed as follows if one of the circuit breakers(5 or6)
is tripped:
1. Open the protective flap(2) above the circuit breakers.
2. Switch the tripped circuit breaker(5 or6) to the switch
positionI.
3. If the circuit breaker(5 or 6) trips again, disconnect the
circuit/ consumer from the corresponding CEEcoupling(4)
according to the number.
4. Have the defective circuit/ consumer checked by a
qualified electrician or a specialist electrical company.
