2.8

 

Safety during installation 

1 

Ensure the competence of installation personnel 
 

Owners SHALL ensure that installation personnel are professionally competent, 
professionally qualified and are provided with adequate instructions for carrying out the 
work. 

 

2 

Ensure proper commissioning and handover 
 

Owners SHALL ensure that the test loading, test drive, and commissioning inspection 
have been properly executed. 
Owners SHALL ensure that components, electrical connections, and steel structures of 
the product have been inspected and certified as defect-free.

 

 

3 

Documentation 
 

At handover, check with your supplier that you have received all of the documents that 
you are supposed to have and that they correspond to the product. 

Owners SHALL ensure that all product documentation is available and is in the agreed 
language. 

 

4 

Ensure availability of tools and equipment 
 

The owner must ensure that tools and equipment are available for installation, in 
accordance with the sales contract. 

Lifting equipment, manlifters, and test loads may be required. 

Hand lines, securely attached to the building structure, should be used for lifting or 
lowering materials and tools. Use proper safety equipment to prevent objects from 
falling when working in high places. 

 

5 

Allow sufficient time 
 

Owners must ensure that sufficient time has been reserved for installation and testing. 

 

6 

Prevent unauthorized access to the site 
 

Owners must prevent unauthorized persons and bystanders from walking on or below 
the work site. 

Ensure that the secured area is spacious enough to prevent injuries which could occur 
as a result of falling components or tools. 

 

7 

Minimize the risks of moving machinery 
 

Make sure that there is no possibility for personnel or body parts to be struck, crushed, 
or compressed by moving machinery. 

Owners must secure the area so that installation personnel are not at risk from the 
movements of machines, automatic doors, or adjacent cranes at the installation site. 

Ensure that machinery and equipment cannot start accidentally and cannot move 
during installation and servicing. Maintain sufficient free space in the working area to 
reduce risks. Moving parts should be properly shielded with guards to prevent 
entrapment. Safety devices must never be overridden. 

Be prepared in case equipment moves in the wrong direction during testing.
