Marius Posted October 13, 2009 Share Hi Guys, Me and Lilo finally got a new stove, for free nogals but now the stove came with a plug effek ( Green thing in pic ) and out the wall comes three cables, I like the green and yellow one the most and then there is one black and one red one. The Plug thingy has 4 pee-pee's sticking out so many it has 4 wires? Anyways, so now, how do I get these two cables connected without burning down the place?

Captain Slow Posted October 13, 2009 Share I suggest you call in a sparky cause if you don't and do it yourself and the place burns down, Lilo won't be happy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Slow Posted October 13, 2009 Share Ok, read your post properly. Am I correct by saying that on the stove side there is a green/yellow, a black & a red wire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotSoBigBen Posted October 13, 2009 Share Oi M I suppose that the money saved on the stove is going towards the ring ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted October 13, 2009 Share It's got 4 wires in the green plug, 3Red and 1Black. I got the stove for free you think I'm gonna pay some yahoo to put a plug thingy on... Can't I buy a adapter or converter or a socket thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davem Posted October 13, 2009 Share Sounds like your new stove is 3 phase. Normally the 4 pin plug is for industrial equipment. You need a pro to sort this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kansas Posted October 13, 2009 Share Just take off the plug thingy, use the wires from the wall connect the red where the red one was from the plug, black where the black one was from the plug, the green and yellow is your earth wire, (black neutral, red live). That should do the trick, worked for 6 years with my father as a sparky. Any problems let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted October 13, 2009 Share TT is next weekend so have time to recover from the shock.. So some one suggested I cut the plug off, connect Red to Red, Black tot Black and look for the Earth cable some were on or in the stove and connect those two as well, but then I don't know what to do with the other two red cables?> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kansas Posted October 13, 2009 Share lets see if I can do this with no pics. The wire from the plug take it out completely (just look where you take it from) from stove, now there should be a conector block at the back of the stove where the wires from the plug is connected....take the wires from the wall and connect it where the red black and yellow/green was connected. Just note one the stove side you need to brigde the three red cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
