Next push the cord slightly into the cabinet and install the strain relief. Next using the five-sixteenths inch screw that once held the white neutral wire to the cabinet, install the green ground wire to the cabinet. If any cross threading happens during this process, the screw and the nut it secures to will both need to be replaced. This is to align the threads on the screws correctly with the nuts that they secure to in the terminal block.

Throughout this process you may notice that at times I turn the nut driver counter clockwise before turning it clockwise. Again, the black wire represents line one and the red wire represents line two. Next, attach the line one and line two to the terminal block. It is important to understand that the screws that come with the terminal block are specifically threaded for the terminal block and only these screws can be used. Next, bring the two neutral wires together and secure them to the terminal block. Insert the cord through the hole in the cabinet and align the ends of the wires with the terminal block. White is neutral and red is L2 or line two and green wire goes to the ground. Our black wire will represent L1 or line one. Move the neutral wire over so it comes up and underneath of the terminal block. Next using a five-sixteenths inch nut driver, remove the five-sixteenths inch screw securing the neutral wire to the cabinet. Next, remove the three-quarter inch screws that are securing the wire terminals to the terminal block. Using a quarter-inch nut driver, remove the one-quarter inch screw securing the terminal block cover in place.
The outer wire on the left-hand side is line one and the outer wire on the right-hand side is line two.
The center wire on the three-wire cord is neutral and will always be installed in the center of the terminal block. The green wire on the four-wire cord is ground. The first portion of this video will cover the four-wire cord installation and the second part of the video will cover the three-wire cord installation.Īs we can see, the four-wire cord is color-coded and the three-wire cord is not. Contact with 240 volts can result in serious injury or death. It is important that all electrical is disconnected before the installation of the cord.

Again, this step is best to be left to a trained and qualified electrician with experience installing hand dryers.Most electricians use a 300 millimeter to 400 millimeter distance, fitting the fused spur either on the right or left side of the hand dryer. Do not attempt to install the fused spur under the hand dryer. Instead, find a good spot to install the fused spur, keeping in mind there should be enough space between the hand dryer and the fused spur – also be sure the fused spur is far away from other water sources or toilets.If the hand dryer has a power plug, cut it out from the top and use the rest of the wiring to feed into the fused spur.We recommend you completely avoid using a power plug, and have an unswitched fused spur installed with your new hand dryer.Some hand dryers come with a pre-built power plug, but United Kingdom regulations suggest against using a wall plug in a bathroom unless it can be installed at least 3 meters away from a wash basin or other water source.
