Hi all, I've just tried wiring an indesit IB65B60 induction hob. I read the instruction manual and it said for 240v connections to put the brown/black wires together on the live circuit, earth for earth and the blue/grey wires on the neutral.

When I turned the power back on the induction hob was working fine, went back to try it later and now only one side of the hob is working (2 rings out of 4).

Would be really grateful if someone could tell me if I'm doing something wrong here? Or if the hob itself is just faulty?

Thanks!

There are no connections or links at the hob end to make. The hob is supplied with two cables to connect containing brown S and black R for line, blue sleeved grey T and blue N for neutral and green/yellow E which was shown done correctly in the first picture.

See page 4 of 10 of manual.
Cant see a pic of the hob end connections though.
The hob is also capable of dual zone for big pans.
 
I think the point Marconi was making is that where the cable disappears into the hob, there is no access to the cable terminations - the cables are integrated into the unit when it's made, and there is no simple access to any terminals!

Page 4 of the manual.

Make sure the voltage specified on the data plate located on the bottom of the appliance is the same as that of the home, it then goes on to show different connections for different supplies.
