Packaging the Test Set
Use original packaging or comparable. It is best to pack the unit in the original factory
packaging materials if they are available.
You can repackage the test set with commercially available materials, as follows:
Step
1 Wrap the test set in antistatic plastic
2 Use a strong shipping container.
3 Surround the equipment with three
4 Seal the shipping container securely
5 Mark the shipping container
6 Retain copies of all shipping
Getting Started Guide
Test set damage can result from using packaging materials other than those
specified. Never use styrene pellets in any shape as packaging materials.
They do not adequately cushion the test set or prevent it from shifting in
the carton. They cause test set damage by generating static electricity and

papers.
Notes
The carton must be both large enough and strong
enough to accommodate the test set. A double-walled,
corrugated cardboard carton with 159 kg (350 lb)
bursting strength is adequate. Allow at least 3 to 4
inches on all sides of the test set for packing material.
If packing foam is not available, the best alternative is
plastic bubble-pak. This material looks like a plastic
sheet filled with 1-1/4 inch air bubbles. Use the
pink-colored bubble which reduces static electricity.
Wrapping the equipment several times in this material
should both protect the equipment and prevent it from
moving in the carton.
