Unauthorized personnel and equipment must be restricted from the areas of operation.
All operations should be performed carefully, methodically, and without hurrying. Greater effectiveness will be developed by increased
familiarity of personnel with their assignments. During any maintenance operation, if a malfunction occurs or an incorrect indication
appears, stop the operation and determine whether or
not it is safe to proceed. Before performing any step in a procedure, be sure that
the preceding step has been properly executed and correct results obtained. Cleanliness and good housekeeping in all installation areas
are major factors in effective accident prevention. Tools and equipment should be maintained in good working order and should always
be returned to their proper storage place after usage. Cleaning agents and other cleaning aids should be removed from the equipment
areas immediately upon completing the task at hand.
-Changes, modifications, or additions in connection with the IED system equipment shall not be made without explicit authorization of IED.
Safety devices found on mechanical, and electrical and electronic equipment are put there for the protection of personnel and
equipment. These devices must be maintained in good working order and operative at all times. Safety devices shall never be removed
or bypassed unless specifically authorized by the IED factory. Where safety devices have been rendered inoperable by proper and
specific authorization, adequate notices shall be posted to warn personnel of the potential hazard.
Avoid the use of flammable or toxic cleaning fluids, and the use of carbon tetrachloride is prohibited.
Maintenance of the equipment shall be at least what is specified in the IED manuals and literature, and performed only by qualified
personnel.
Whenever operation and maintenance is ongoing, personnel in the equipment areas shall have an effective communication among
these areas in order to protect people if any accident occurs.
PRELIMINARY PRECAUTIONS
Precautions which are applicable to general electrical or electronic maintenance are as follows:
a. Check yourself. Wear no article that might catch on equipment or that might act as a conductor.
b. Check the working area. The equipment area shall be clean and dry. If possible, stand on a special insulator such as a
rubber mat. There should be ample working space and good lighting.
c. Check the tools. Always use proper tools and check them for their safe condition. Use screwdrivers with plastic handles.
Check test equipment periodically and examine test leads carefully as the slightest break in insulation is dangerous.
d. Check the procedures. Study the entire procedure before taking the first step. Consult the circuit diagram frequently to
obtain an understanding of what is accomplished at each step. Know what is in the equipment and how it differs from
others on which you have worked.
e. Be aware that high voltages may be present across terminals that are normally low voltage, due to equipment
breakdown. Be careful when measuring low voltages in equipment containing high voltage circuits.
f. Do not make resistance measurements with power on.
g. Do not work within the equipment without the presence of a person who is capable of rendering aid, and who is familiar
with the procedure for emergency shutdown of the equipment.
