Installation instructions
●
These products should be installed by a competent person (eg.
qualified electrician) in accordance with these instructions and in
compliance with the appropriate clauses of the current edition of
the IEE wiring regulations. Sockets should be connected via a
suitable RCD device.
●
Disconnect the mains electricity supply.
●
The Weathersafe range is designed to be mounted on a vertical
flat surface, with socket outlets not more than 1.5 metres above
the ground (this does not apply to switches).
●
To remove rockers from WPL range prise off using a flat blade
screwdriver (figure 1). Use a piece of cloth or similar to prevent
marking the unit. This allows access to the four fixing screws.

●
The rear box shall be mounted on the wall using four no.8 wood
screws.
●
If conduit is to be used then please follow the instructions below
●
The drain feature must be drilled out using a 5mm drill if top
or side entry conduit is used. Opening this drain hole will
reduce the IP rating of the product.
●
If bottom entry conduit is used, there must be adequate
drainage from the lowest point of the conduit.
●
With relevant cable entry cover removed. A waterproof cable
or conduit entry must then be fitted in its place, and sealed
using the washer supplied.
●
If two cable entry positions are used with metal conduit,
then earth continuity between the conduits must be
maintained.
●
If a product is installed with a built in isolating switch, then the
live and neutral supply must be connected to the relevant
terminal on the isolating switch. The protective conductor must
be connected to the earth terminal on the product. There are
spare terminals in the rear box for connecting earth loops.
●
All WPL switch products are provided with a neon locator for
locating the product in the dark (This is the only intended use for
this neon). To enable the neon to remain lit irrespective of switch
state the neon must be wired to a permanent L and N feed.
●
Ensure that the gasket is correctly fitted, and tighten the four
screws to fix the front cover in place. Do not overtighten. Use of
an electric screw driver is not recommended.
Operating instructions

Once the box lid is open, the isolating lever should not be turned
back to the on position.

Service items
The gaskets, neons, lid seals and cable seals
are sold separately.
Replacement of the gasket on all products
except for the switches is straightforward as it
is a direct replacement.
Switch products have an integral gasket and
membrane. Should only the gasket need to be
replaced, cut into the four positions shown in figure 6.
If the membrane needs to be replaced then the switch assembly
needs to be removed from it’s mounting plate. Care should be taken
not to strip the screws and that a watertight joint is maintained
between switch assembly, membrane and mounting plate (figure 7).
