Safety Precautions
Ç
DANGER
Omni-Rupter Switches operate at high voltage. Failure to observe the precautions
below will result in serious personal injury or death.
Some of these precautions may differ from company operating procedures and rules. Where
a discrepancy exists, users should follow their company’s operating procedures and rules.
1. QUALIFIED PERSONS. Access to switches and
controls must be restricted only to qualified persons.
See “Qualified Persons” on page 2.
2. SAFETY PROCEDURES. Always follow safe operat-
ing procedures and rules.
3. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. Always
use suitable protective equipment such as rubber
gloves, rubber mats, hard hats, safety glasses, and flash
clothing in accordance with safe operating procedures
and rules.
4. SAFETY LABELS AND TAGS. Do not remove or
obscure any of the “DANGER,” “WARNING,” “CAU-
TION,” or “NOTICE,” labels and tags. Remove tags
ONLY if instructed to do so.
5. ENERGIZED COMPONENTS. Always consider all
parts live until de-energized, tested, and grounded.
6. LOAD-INTERRUPTER SWITCH POSITION.
Always confirm the open/close position of load-inter-
rupter switches by visually observing the position of
the blades. Switches may be energized from either side
and with the blades in any position.
7. MAINTAINING PROPER CLEARANCE. Always
maintain proper clearance from energized components.
8. OPERATION. Circuit making and breaking is involved
in the normal operation of this interrupter switch and,
as a result, “partway” opening or closing is undesirable.
To operate, swing the operating handle through its full
travel vigorously and without hesitation. See “Checking
Operation” on page 23.
