2 Important notes
The technical regulations introduced below apply in respect of the Federal Republic of Ger-
many. Users in other countries must be sure to comply with all applicable local regulations.
Danger alarm systems must be installed in accordance with Appendix 1 to DIN VDE 0833 'Di-
rectory of relevant standards for electrical safety' (previously from the DIN VDE 0800 series of
standards). Furthermore, all installation, extension, modification and operation activities must
be performed in accordance with DIN VDE 0833 ('installation' in this instance refers to plan-
ning, installation, commissioning and maintaining).
Installation and commissioning of the Voice Alarm System E100 may only be carried out by
an electrical specialist.
This specialist must furthermore be trained in the installation and commissioning of the E100
system.
Extract from DIN VDE 0833:
An electrical specialist is someone whose specialist training, knowledge and experi-
ence as well as knowledge of the relevant standards allows them to evaluate the task be-
fore them and recognize potential dangers.
Many years of experience in the relevant field are also acceptable in place of specialist
training. Furthermore, for the field of danger alarm systems engineering it is necessary to
have additional training, knowledge and experience of the electrical engineering fields of
danger alarm systems engineering, telecommunications technology, process data process-
ing and heavy current technology
