UK Only 13A Plug Connection.
If your TV is connected to the mains supply using a 3 pin 13 amp plug, the voltage rating is 220-
240 volts and should be protected by a 3 amp fuse in the plug.
Should the fuse require replacement for any reason, the fuse must be replaced with a fuse
rated at 3 amps and manufactured and approved to Bs1362.
If the mains plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home or is removed for any other
reason, then the cut off plug should have its fuse removed and be disposed of safely to prevent
the hazard of electric shock.
There is a danger of electric shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket outlet.
