Looking at the installation instructions (http://media3.bsh-group.com/Documents/9001280153_C.pdf).
Page 3 refers to the electrical connection, and distinguishes between power cables with/without a plug with earthing contact, and in particular says "If the plug can no longer be reached after the installation, a partition must be provided in the phases in the permanent electrical installation in accordance with the installation regulations". What in the world is that all about? What can I do other than connect blue to blu, brown to brown etc? Is anyone able to shed any light on this?!


I'll wager that's a literal translation from the German. I'd read it as
means of isolation - e.g. a double pole switch in a cooker unit.
