1.3 Remember to measure resistance 

The  resistance  should  be  measured  between  the  two  conductors,  blue  and  brown.  Compare  this 

resistance reading to the resistance specified in the Product Selection Table. The value should be 

within

 

-5% to +10%. If you get a different reading, contact Adept at 01394 593110. 

Also, measure the resistance between the blue, brown and yellow green ground wire. Both should 

read infinity. If you get a different reading, contact Adept at 01394 593110. 

Please refer to “5 Commissioning” for instructions on how to measure the resistance. 

Important: measure the resistance three times during the installation process 

Remember  to  always  measure,  verify  and  record  the  actual  resistance  throughout  the 

installation process (out of the box, after installation

 

and after installation of wood floor).
