1. The system feed water sea cock valve is closed.
2. The system main electrical disconnect switch is switched
“OFF,” LOCKED,
and
TAGGED
.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.
A volt/ohm meter
will be necessary. The following installation procedures expose the installer
to
HIGH VOLTAGE
and electrical shock hazard. Only attempt this if you
are a qualified electrician and only if surrounding conditions are safe.
CAUTION:
Always allow slack in electrical cables. Allow the cable to enter
or leave from the strain relief in a straight manner for several inches to ensure
proper connection, to relieve stress to the cable and fitting, and to allow ease
of detachment and reattachment for maintenance or replacement. If electrical
cables are pulled tight causing them to bend at the strain relief, they will pull
out of the strain relief causing a dangerous electrical shock condition.
NOTE:
• Always follow all local and Coast Guard codes when installing this system.
• Grounding and circuit protection should be done in
accordance with National Electrical Code.
• Never attempt to hook-up or service this system without disconnecting all power.
• Always check to make sure system voltage matches incoming voltage.
