• To cut the power in case of an emergency by unplugging, the instrument or any other item must
not block the mains plug! The plug must be able to be pulled out instantly at all time.
• Additional electrical safety measures such as residual current breakers may be necessary to meet
local laws and regulations!
• External power switches (e.g. emergency stop switches) must meet IEC 60947-1 and IEC
60947-3 requirements. Such devices must be clearly labeled and accessible at any time.
