21.3 Additional requirements for rewireable socket-outlet adaptors
A rewireable socket-outlet adaptor having facilities for the connection of a flexible cord shall also be supplied with instructions detailing the following:
(a) A diagram illustrating the method of connection of the conductors and in particular the earthing conductor and the cord anchorage. This diagram shall show the earthing conductor printed in green/yellow colours. The live conductors shall not be coloured.
(b) A full-scale diagram showing the length of sleeving and insulation to be stripped back.
(c) A description of the method of connection of each conductor giving the alternative colours permissible for the active, neutral and earthing conductors, respectively.
(d) The size and types of flexible cords with which it is intended to be used.
(e) A diagram, either in or on accompanying packaging, depicting both the correct and incorrect method of connection, and the correct and incorrect applications of a socket-outlet adaptor.
NOTES:
1 As specified in AS/NZS 3199, only a three-pin flat-pin plug conforming to AS/NZS 3112 and a cord extension socket complying with AS/NZS 3120 are to be used for a cord extension set.
2 Socket-outlet adaptors intended to be marketed in bulk, e.g. to equipment manufacturers, may be supplied with one set of instructions per package.
21.4 Earthing connections
Where a rewireable socket-outlet adaptor incorporates a contact intended to provide an earthing facility, its terminal shall be distinguished by marking in accordance with AS/NZS 3100 located either on, or adjacent to, the earthing terminal.
This marking shall be supplemented by the conspicuous application of a green colour on or adjacent to the earth terminal, if the socket-outlet adaptor is of the rewireable type.
If, during assembly, pins or contacts can become readily detached from the body of the socket-outlet adaptor while remaining attached to the conductors of the flexible cord, or are required to be detached from the body in order that connection may be effected, the above information shall be conspicuously marked inside the body adjacent to the position for the earthing pin or contact and on the pin or contact.
