Electrical safety
High voltage precautions
A high-voltage power supply provides power for the device. Direct or indirect
contact (through damp objects) with a high-voltage power supply (including the
main power in a building) can result in fatal danger.
When installing the AC power supply, follow standard safety regulations.
Personnel who install the AC power supply must be qualified to perform high
voltage and AC operations.
Do not wear conductive objects such as a watch, chain, bracelet, or ring during
the operation.
Switch off the power supply immediately if you find water in the cabinet or if
the rack is damp.
Make sure that the device is kept away from water when being operated in a
damp environment
Improper operation on a high voltage power supply may result in fire and electric
shock. To connect and route the AC cables through a certain area, you must follow
standard rules and regulations. Personnel must have an up-to-date certificate for
operating high voltage and AC power devices.
See High voltage tools on page 20.
High voltage tools
You must use insulated tools when operating on high voltage and AC power.
See High voltage precautions on page 20.
