Connecting the high-voltage conductors
Brush the contact surfaces of the high-voltage terminals with a steel wire brush, which has only been used for
aluminium, until they are bright and slightly roughened. Wipe the contact surfaces off with lint-free paper or cloth
and lightly coat them with acid-free Vaseline, e.g. Shell Vaseline 8420.
Make the connections and tighten the screws. Before commissioning, retighten once again.
In the case of connecting parts made of copper, copper-aluminium spacers must be used.
