Unprotected cables can be damaged by hydraulic fluid, excessive
temperature, excessive strain, and contact with sharp, abrasive, or heavy
objects.
A damaged cable can cause a rapid, unexpected system response which
can result in severe personal injury, death, or damage to equipment.
Protect all system cables as described below:
•
Protect electrical cables from spilled hydraulic fluid and from excessive
temperatures that can cause the cables to harden and eventually fail.
•
Ensure that all cables have strain-relief devices installed at the cable and
near the connector plug. Do not use the connector plug as a strain relief.
•
Protect all system cables from sharp or abrasive objects that can cause the
cable to fail.
•
Use a cable cover or cable tray where cables are in traffic locations. Never
walk on cables or move heavy objects over them.
•
Route cables away from areas that expose them to possible damage.
