• To avoid accidents and/or material damage, human access to
the movement range of the machine must be restricted. Limit/
prevent accidental access for people in this area due through
technical safety measures. The protective cover and protective
fence must be rigid enough to withstand the maximum possible
movement energy. EMERGENCY STOP switches must be easily
and quickly accessible. Before starting up the machine or auto-
mated system, check that the EMERGENCY STOP system is
working. Prevent operation of the machine if this protective
equipment does not function correctly.
2.11.4 Protection against electric shock
Possible electrostatic energy
Components or assembly groups may become electrostatically
charged. When the electrostatic charge is touched, the discharge
may trigger a shock reaction leading to injuries.
• The operator must ensure that all components and assembly
groups are included in the local potential equalisation in accord-
ance with the applicable regulations.
• While paying attention to the actual conditions of the working
environment, the potential equalisation must be implemented by
a specialist electrician according to the applicable regulations.
• The effectiveness of the potential equalisation must be verified
by executing regular safety measurements.
