These error codes all relate to a power supply or voltage issue and generally indicate that the hob has detected an abnormal electrical connection.
Where can I find the correct wiring diagram for my induction hob?
You can find the correct electrical connection (wiring) diagram in the user manual supplied with your induction hob. On many models, the wiring diagram is also shown on a label attached to the bottom of the hob. As wiring requirements can vary between models, always check the diagram for your specific hob.
