SAFETY AND OTHER WARNINGS
For safety reasons, the OTS-EL must be installed, operated and serviced only by competent personnel.
Please read and understand this instruction manual completely before installing, operating or servicing
this equipment. Failure to install or operate this instrument in accordance with the instructions contained
in this manual may create hazardous operating conditions.
1.1 Safe Use of Equipment
The equipment supplied has been designed and manufactured to ensure safe operation. The equipment
must only be used within the design parameters.
The instructions within this manual must be observed as an aid towards achieving the safest possible
installation.
Persons responsible for installation, maintenance, or operation, must observe the following
instructions:
1.1.1 Changes to Equipment
Changes in the design and modifications to the equipment are not permitted. Unauthorised changes
made to the hardware or operating firmware will void the manufacturer's warranty, and may
compromise the integrity of the system into which it is installed and other connected equipment.
1.1.2 Equipment Knowledge
Experience with, or understanding of, this equipment is essential for the safe installation and removal of
the equipment. Therefore, please read and understand this manual prior to use. Competency based
training courses are recommended and are available on request.
1.1.3 Manual Handling
Precautions have been taken to ensure all equipment is safe to handle and free from sharp edges.
However, care should always be taken when handling enclosures and gloves should be worn.
1.1.4 Installation
Correct operation and safety depend on the Outlet Test System and associated equipment being
installed correctly. Mechanical and or electrical installation and maintenance of plant and equipment
must only be carried out by appropriately qualified personnel and must be tested thoroughly prior to
operation.
1.1.5 Operation
The OTS-EL is not a primary safety device: it is periodically operated to ensure the correct operation of
the primary earth leakage protection on an outlet. It is therefore necessary that it is operated only by
trained and competent personnel who can correctly interpret and verify the test results obtained
through the use of the OTS-EL.
