1. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
1.1 Notes and General Instructions
• BEFORE THE EQUIPMENT IS SWITCHED ON, the unit’s possible protective earth terminal must be connected to the
earth conductor of the power supply cable (from the electricity network).
• The protective action must not be compromised by using a cable without an earth conductor. Earthing Neutral does
not give sufficient protection.
• The Technical Assistance instructions are supplied for use by personnel trained for this purpose. To prevent dangerous
electric shocks, do not carry out any technical assistance unless qualified to do so.
• Any interruption of the protection conductor (earth), both inside and outside the equipment, constitutes a potential
electric shock hazard that could result an personal injury.
If, at any time, it is discovered that the protection has been disactivated, the equipment must be made inoperable and
guarded against unauthorised use.
• Do not work on the equipment in the presence of gases or flammable vapours.
The use of any electrical apppliance in these circumstances is a definite safety risk.
• Do not install non-original spare parts and do not make any unauthorised modification to the equipment.
• Any fine-tuning, maintenance and repairs to the equipment open and under power must be avoided as much as
possible and, when inevitable, must be done by an expert person aware of the consequent risks.
• The condensers inside the equipment could still be live even if the equipment has been disconnected from the
power supply.
This power, present at several points, could cause personal injury if touched accidentally.
• Do NOT use liquid cleaners for external cleaning operations, they could damage the sealing gaskets of the electrical
protection equipment causing short circuits with consequent injuries to people.
• Before carrying out any electrical maintenance jobs aboard the vessel, ensure that the plug has been
disconnected from the socket on the turret.
