For your safety!

That’s why our instruction manual begins with these 
recommendations:

• 

Only install switchgear and/or switchboards in 
enclosed rooms suitable for electrical equipment.

• 

Ensure that installation, operation and 
maintenance are carried out by specialist 
electricians only.

• 

Comply in full with the legally recognized 
standards (DIN VDE/IEC), the connection 
conditions of the local electrical utility and the 
applicable safety at work regulations.

• 

Observe the relevant information in the 
instruction manual for all actions involving 
switchgear and switchboards.

   Danger

 

  Pay special attention to the hazard notes in the  
  instruction manual marked with this warning  
 symbol.

• 

Make sure that under operation condition of the 
switchgear or switchboard the specified data are 
not exceeded.

• 

Keep the instruction manual accessible to all 
persons concerned with installation, operation and 
maintenance.

• 

The user’s personnel are to act responsibly in all 
matters affecting safety at work and the correct 
handling of the switchgear.

• 

Always observe the five safety rules set out in EN 
50110 on establishing and securing the off-circuit 
condition at the place of work for the duration of 
work on the switchgear.

 

-

Isolate

 

-
