Danger to life from electric shock due to live voltage
High voltages are present in the live components of the DC sub-distribution. Touching live
components results in death or serious injury due to electric shock.
• Disconnect the inverter on the DC side (see the inverter manual).
• Disconnect the DC sub-distribution (see the DC sub-distribution manual).
• Disconnect all DC sub-distributions that are connected in parallel in the DC connection area
(see the manual of the respective DC sub-distribution).
Risk of injury when lifting the DC sub-distribution, or if it is dropped
