Personnel undertaking installation, commissioning or servicing work on this equipment should be
aware of the correct working procedures to ensure safety. The product documentation should be
consulted before installing, commissioning or servicing the equipment.
Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance may present hazardous
voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.
If there is unlocked access to the rear of the equipment, care should be taken by all personnel to

correctly terminated, the correct crimp terminal and tool for the wire size should be used.
Before energising the equipment it must be earthed using the protective earth terminal, or the
appropriate termination of the supply plug in the case of plug connected equipment. Omitting or
disconnecting the equipment earth may cause a safety hazard.
The recommended minimum earth wire size is 2.5mm

Before energising the equipment, the following should be checked:
1. Voltage rating and polarity;
2. CT circuit rating and integrity of connections;
3. Protective fuse rating;
4. Integrity of earth connection (where applicable)
