2.6 Advice about specific dangers
2.6.1 Danger from electrical energy
There is risk of receiving a life-threatening electric shock if you touch live
components.
Only authorised electricians may work on electrical components or
equipment in accordance with electrotechnical rules
Covers of live components may not be removed.
In the case of faults in the supply of electrical energy to the device
and the ancillary devices, switch off immediately at the main
switch(es) and/or separate the device from the power supply.
Check the electrical equipment of the device and the ancillary devices
regularly. In the case of damage to the electrical equipment of the
device and the ancillary devices, switch off immediately at the main
switch(es) Have any loose connections and/or burnt/damaged cables
rectified immediately.
If there is a risk of an electric shock, switch the device and the
ancillary devices off.
Secure the device and the ancillary devices against being started up
again, e.g. by posting corresponding signs / notices and/or by
cordoning off the area of risk with a coloured safety chain or tape. If
required, ask for assistance.
Even after the separating the device from the power supply, there is still
life-threatening current present through the charged capacitors.
Make sure no voltages are still present before starting work on electrical
components.
