Devices with a higher rating may affect the energy quality of the mains due to
their current input.
This may affect a number of device types in terms of:
-

connection restrictions

-

criteria with regard to the maximum permissible mains impedance

Anyone working with chargers exposes themselves to numerous dangers e.g.:
-

risk of electrocution from mains current and charging current

-

hazardous electromagnetic fields, which can endanger the lives of those
using cardiac pacemakers

An electric shock can be fatal. Every electric shock is potentially life threaten-
ing. To avoid electric shocks while using the charger:
-

do not touch any live parts inside or on the outside of the charger.

-

under no circumstances touch the battery poles

-

do not short-circuit the charger lead or charging terminals

All cables and leads must be secure, undamaged, insulated and adequately
