GENERAL INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
These recommended general safety precautions are unrelated to any specific procedure and do not appear
elsewhere in this manual. Personnel should understand and apply these precautions during installation.
Installation personnel shall observe all safety regulations at all times. Keep away from live circuits. Turn off
system power before making or breaking electrical connections. Regard any exposed connector, terminal
board, or circuit board as a possible shock hazard. Discharge charged components only when such
grounding cannot damage equipment. If a test connection to energized equipment is required, make the test
equipment ground connection before probing the voltage or signal.
Do not install or service equipment alone. Do not under any circumstances reach into or enter any enclosure
to service or adjust equipment without the presence or assistance of another person able to render aid.
