POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL
Do not install the HotPoint 1500R outdoor mesh router where possible contact with power lines
can be made. Antennas, masts, towers, guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these
lines. People may be injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it
contacts electric lines. Make sure there is NO possibility that equipment or personnel can come in
contact directly or indirectly with power lines.
ASSUME ALL OVERHEAD LINES ARE POWER LINES
The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be at
least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination. This will ensure that the mast will not
contact power if it falls either during or after installation.
