Work on electrical installations may only be carried out by qualified electricians
or by instructed persons working under the guidance and supervision of a quali-
fied electrician, in accordance with the electrotechnical regulations.
Control panels must be disconnected from the power supply during commission-
ing or maintenance work whenever possible.
Connection terminals with an external voltage supply must be provided with a
sign reading 'DANGER – External voltage'.
Mains leads to the control panel must be installed separately and provided with
a clearly marked fuse.
Earthing must be carried out in compliance with local safety regulations.
When work is carried out in explosion-hazardous areas, the appropriate safety
precautions must be taken.
Assembly, installation, commissioning and inspection work
If any tools or accessories such as ladders are required, safe and suitable de-
vices must be used.
Spurious activation of the remote transmission must be reliably prevented.
Always inform the fire brigade before testing the remote transmission.
The activation of fire controls for test purposes must not cause damage to the
system or parts thereof.
Fire controls must only be activated after the test has been completed and the
system has been definitely handed over to the customer.
Third party systems or devices must only be activated in the presence of the re-
sponsible person.
When work on management stations and system terminals is performed, the
safety regulations of the connected sub-systems must be observed. This espe-
cially applies when switching off system components.
In the case of extinguishing systems, always use the "General installation in-
structions" as a guideline. These guidelines are available on request.
