Selectable Ground and Test Device
3.3 STORAGE
If the selectable ground and test device is to be placed in storage,
maximum protection can be obtained by keeping it in the original
shipping crate. Before placing it in storage, checks should be made
to make sure that the SG&T device is free from shipping damage
and is in satisfactory operating condition.
Outdoor storage is NOT recommended. If unavoidable, the outdoor
location must be well drained and a temporary shelter from sun,
rain, snow, corrosive fumes, dust, dirt, falling objects, excessive
moisture, etc. must be provided. Container should be arranged to
permit free circulation of air on all sides and temporary heaters
should be used to minimize condensation. Moisture can cause
rusting of metal parts and deterioration of high voltage insulation.
A heat level of approximately 400 watts for each 100 cubic feet of
volume is recommended with the heaters distributed uniformly
throughout the structure near the floor.
Indoor storage should be in a building with sufficient heat and
circulations to prevent condensation. If the building is not heated,
the same general rule for heat as for outdoor storage should be
applied.
