Safety standards
The following are the warnings to be respected during the maintenance operations
HAZARD! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Risk of electric shock or accident.
WARNING! before proceeding with any maintenance operation, it is mandatory to:
•
Set the circuit-breaker to the open position and make sure that the springs of the
operating mechanism are discharged.
•
In the case of a withdrawable circuit-breaker, extract the circuit-breaker from the fixed
part (see the indication DISCONNECTED)
•
If work must be performed on fixed circuit-breakers or on fixed parts, disconnect
the power supply to the power circuit and auxiliary circuits and visibly ground the
terminals on both the supply side and load side.
•
Use adequate personal protection equipment, ensure that the apparatus is in a safe
condition and proceed in accordance with the Laws in force.
Skilled personnel
The maintenance operations must be carried out by Skilled Personnel:
electrically skilled person (IEV 195-04-01): person with relevant education and experience to enable him or
her to perceive risks and to avoid hazards which electricity can create.
ABB declines all liability for damage to persons or property caused by failure to comply with the instructions
in this document.
