DANGER!
Risk of fatal injury from electric current!
Contact with live, current-conducting components presents imminent, life-
threatening hazard. Damage to the insulation or individual components can
be life-threatening.
– Work on electrical components may only be carried out by professional
electricians.
– Before starting work, isolate the system from the power supply and
ensure this state is maintained for the duration of the work.
– Turn off immediately and organise repairs if there is any damage to the
insulation voltage supply.
– Never bridge or decommission fuses.
– When replacing fuses, comply with the rating.
– Keep voltage-carrying parts away from moisture, as this can cause a
short circuit.
