4. REMOVAL AND DESTRUCTION OF THE MiCOM RELAY
Removal: The auxiliary power supply circuit of the relay can include capacitors
for the power supply or for earthing. To avoid any risk of
electrocution or thermal shock, it is appropriate to isolate the relay
completely (the two direct current poles) from any power supply,
then to discharge the capacitors in complete safety via the external
terminals, before taking the device out of service.
Destruction: It is recommended that the relay should not be incinerated nor
thrown into a river. MiCOM relays and their components should be
disposed of and recycled strictly in compliance with regulations on
safety and the environment. Before destruction, remove the
batteries, taking the necessary precautions to avoid any risk of
electrocution.
