You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads,
plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of
appropriate safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also
recommend that an RCd (Residual Current device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCd
together with portable products that are plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified
electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current device by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the
following instructions concerning electrical safety.
the electricity at work act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
the Health & safety at work act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance
and the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
