Hi everybody,

 

Hope everybody is well?

 

The most simple of questions has stumped me (well, I am a DIY'er!).

 

I'm installing a Pyronix Enforcer. There is no earthing cable from the transformer in the panel - just live and neutral. But, in the installation manual it says it needs to be earthed. I automatically presumed with it being a plastic panel it wouldn't need earthing? (There isn't even an 'earth' symbol on the panel as you may see on appliances requiring an earth).

 

Please could somebody point me in the right direction on this one, please?

 

Thanks in advance

Your Enforcer panel has 3 terminals for the mains cable, live, neutral and earth.

the panel itself does not use a transformer it's a power supply like for your laptop and so will not require an Earth connection.

some modules do require an earth connection like the fixed telephone modem which is why it asked for an earth to be connected.

Great stuff, many thanks for clearing that up.
