ÂPrior to installation, HVI®power Conductors must be examined for good order and condition. If da-
mage or any other defect is found, HVI®power Conductors must not be installed. The black sheath
of HVI®power Conductors must not be damaged by compressive deformation or cuts.
ÂWhen using HVI®power Conductors re and explosion protection measures must be taken.
ÂIf HVI®power Conductors are installed on thatched roofs (e.g. reed, straw), special installation
conditions must be observed for these ammable locations. The special installation conditions for
HVI Conductors are described in our Lightning Protection / Earthing main catalogue (HVI Lightning
Protection for Thatched Roofs). These conditions also apply to HVI®power Conductors.
ÂIf the supporting tube is led through a roof, the roof must be properly sealed. Warm roofs must be
properly sealed and insulated.
ÂHVI®power Conductors are suitable for outdoor use and can be installed downstream of the
sealing end e.g. on roofs, in walls, in concrete (mechanically protected, if required) or on facades /
facade constructions. However, the conductors are not suitable for permanent exposure to moisture.
HVI®power Conductors must not be installed in the soil.
ÂSoiled HVI®power Conductors can be cleaned with a cloth soaked with a special cleaning agent
(Part No. 297 199). To be able to comply with dangerous goods regulations, this product is only
transported within Germany and Austria. ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL (99.1 to 99.9 %) (CSA No. 67-63.0)
can be used as an alternative!
ÂHVI®power Conductors must not be painted due to the special design of the outer sheath.
ÂThe function of HVI®power Conductors is to maintain the separation distance. They do not have a
magnetic shielding effect due to their design. Therefore, induction effects in secondary conductors /
loops must be observed. If required, surge protection measures must be taken.
ÂFor application-specic questions, please contact the relevant sales team or the DEHN representati-
ve in your country.
ÂIt has not yet been checked whether HVI®power Conductors are suitable for use in hazardous
areas. Therefore, it is not allowed to use HVI®power Conductors in these areas.
