Signal words

The signal words “danger,” “warning” and 
“caution” used in this manual indicate the 
degree of hazard that may be encountered by 
the user. These words are defined as:

Danger

 - Indicates an imminently hazardous 

situation that, if not avoided, 

will

 result in 

death or serious injury.

Warning

 - Indicates a potentially hazardous 

situation that, if not avoided, 

could

 result in 

death or serious injury.

Caution

 - Indicates a potentially hazardous 

situation that, if not avoided, 

may

 result in 

minor or moderate injury.

Notice 

- Indicates a potentially hazardous 

situation that, if not avoided, 

may

 result in 

property damage.

Hazardous procedures

In addition to other procedures described in 
this manual as dangerous, user personnel 
must adhere to the following:

1.    Always work only on de-energized 

equipment. Always de-energize the 
equipment before performing any tests, 
maintenance or repair. The equipment 
should be isolated, grounded and have all 
control power removed before performing 
any tests, maintenance or repair.

2.    Always perform maintenance on the 

control cabinet only after the capacitors 
are discharged (see page 13). 

3.    Check to be certain the indicator flag is 

green, indicating that the switch unit is in 
the open position (see Figure 7).

4.    Always let an interlock device or safety 

mechanism perform its function without 
forcing or defeating the device.

Field service operation and warranty 
issues

Siemens can provide competent, well-trained 
field service representatives to provide 
technical guidance and advisory assistance 
for the installation, overhaul, repair and 
maintenance of Siemens equipment, 
processes and systems. Contact regional 
service centers, sales offices or the factory for 
details, or telephone Siemens field service at 
+1 (800) 347-6659 or +1 (919) 365-2200 
outside the U.S.

For medium voltage customer service issues, 
contact Siemens at +1 (800) 347-6659 or +1 
(919) 365-2200 outside the U.S.

Hazardous voltages.

Will cause death, serious injury and property damage.

Do not contact energized conductors.

De-energize and ground high voltage conductors before working on or 
near them.
