[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 543360, member: 28452"] The important anomaly is whether it needs an earth. Does the earth symbol you mention have a terminal by it? Alternatively, does it have a double insulated symbol on the rating plate? (Two concentric squares) If it is double insulated then the two core flex is OK. If it isn't then a three core flex with a connected earth is required. Either way I would be inclined to complain to your supplier about rubbish instructions on a safety matter and request their written clarification. You can push it a bit about the legality of selling it. [/QUOTE]
