1.1.1 Safety information: Danger
●
Do not open the power supply. The device may only repaired by authorized personnel.
Opening the device and tampering with it can endanger your life.
●
Before applying power to the system or connecting extensions, ensure that the system is
correctly carthed.
Never operate the equipment with protective earthing conductor disconnected!
●
Voltages above 30 V AC (alternating current) or 60 V DC (direct current) are dangerous.
●
If the power cable appears to be damaged, replace it immediately.
●
Immediately replace any damaged safety equipment (covers, labels and protective cables).
●
If the maintenance work requires the power supply of the system to be shut down:
– Use the shut-off switch to disconnect the system from the power supply circuit, and se-
cure the shut-off device mechanically so that it cannot be used by other persons.
– Affix the information "DO NOT OPERATE" to the disconnect device.
A disconnect device can be a shut-off switch (main switch) or protective switch (fuse/
automatic cut out).
– Before starting any work on the installation, establish the location of the disconnect de-
vice.
●
If you are performing work on circuits with hazardous voltages, always work together with
a partner who is familiar with the location of the switch for the power supply.
●
Always ensure adequate insulation when touching powered circuits.
●
Ensure that the installation is not powered by an additional power supply, or that it is pro-
tected via an additional fuse or an additional main switch.
●
Before starting any work, check whether the corresponding circuits are still on power. Nev-
er take it for granted that all circuits have reliably been disconnected from the power supply
when a fuse or a main switch has been switched off.
●
During a thunderstorm, you should not connect or remove telephone lines and PCB
boards.
●
Expect to encounter leakage current from the telecommunication network.
●
Ensure that, whenever work is carried out on an open installation, the installation is never
left unsupervised.
