Safety Inspections
Safety inspection This section outlines the safety inspection for the device described in this service
manual. It has been structured in compliance with "DIN VDE 0701-0702” and "ÖVE/
ÖNORM E8701-1”.
Please also be aware of the requirements and standards relevant to your country, as the
measured values or steps taken during the tests may vary.
Should there be no relevant requirements and standards in your country, Fronius recom-
mends that this test should still be carried out.
The safety inspection must only be carried out on a fully assembled device.
Responsibility The repair technician is responsible for carrying out and documenting the safety inspec-
tion properly and for making the correct decision regarding the outcome of the inspec-
tion. Fronius will not accept any liability in this regard.
Should any defects be identified during the test, then the entire safety inspection must be
repeated once such defects have been rectified.
The following tests must be performed in the prescribed sequence. Each test must be
passed before the next test is started. If it is not possible to perform a particular test, the
examiner must decide whether the safety of the device can nevertheless still be verified.
The examiner bears full responsibility and liability for this decision. Justifications for the
resulting decision must be documented in the test record under "Comments".
Area of applica-
tion
