1. Primary Interlock [ 11 , Bottom left-hand ]
The Primary switch will cut off the microwave emissions from the oven when
the door is opened by breaking the mains supply circuit to the transformers.
2. Monitor [ 14 ,Top left-hand Side ] and
Secondary Interlock [ 17 , Bottom right-hand ] Switches.
Operate simultaneously.
The Monitor switch will produce a short circuit across the mains supply if the
Primary interlock switch is faulty, thus blowing the microwave fuse and
rendering the oven inoperative.
The Secondary interlock switch will cut off the microwave emission if the
other switches have failed.
Note:
If operation of the Monitor switch has caused the Microwave Fuse to blow,
the Primary and Monitor microswitches must be changed, as they may have
been damaged by the high short-circuit currents involved.
