3. Dangers and Security Measures
3.1 Electrical Dangers
DANGER
The connectors contain components that carry voltage. Deadly hazard!
Always observe the following safety regulations before beginning any work on electrical
constructions:
X
Disconnect
X
Ensure that it is not possible to reconnect unintentionally
X
Clearly mark your work area
X
Make sure that there is no voltage present
X
Earth and short circuit the installation
X
Insulate or cover adjacent energized parts
X
Only an electrically skilled person may determine if there is no voltage present
WARNING
A wrong pin conguration of the contact inserts may cause a deathly electric shock.
X
Make sure that associated pin contacts and socket contacts are always inserted in the corre-
sponding contact cavities with identical pin conguration!
X
Make sure that contacts with phase assignment are not mounted into contact cavities which
are destined for the protective earthing (PE) contact!
