Additional safety requirements for Finland, Norway and
Sweden
Telecommunication connections and cable distribution system.
Special conditions apply to the use of this equipment in Finland,
Sweden and Norway due to different earthing arrangements in
these countries. Therefore it is essential that the installation is
done by authorized personnel and according to the national
requirements only.
This equipment is specified for use in a restricted access location
only, where equipotential bonding has been applied and which
has provision for a permanently connected protective earthing
conductor.
A protective earthing conductor must be installed by a Service
Person.
Additional safety requirements for Norway and Sweden
Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building
installation through the mains connection or through other
equipment with a connection to protective earthing - and to a cable
distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some
circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a cable
distribution system has therefore to be provided through a device
providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11)." NOTE: In Norway, due to
regulation for installations of cable distribution systems, and in
Sweden, a galvanic isolator shall provide electrical insulation below
5 MHz. The insulation shall withstand a dielectric strength of 1,5 kV
r.m.s., 50 Hz or 60 Hz, for 1 min.
Translation to Norwegian:
Utstyr som er koplet til beskyttelsesjord via nettplugg og/eller via
annet jordtilkoplet utstyr - og er tilkoplet et kabel-TV nett, kan
forårsake brannfare. For å unngå dette skal det ved tilkopling av
utstyret til kabel-TV nettet installeres en galvanisk isolator mellom
utstyret og kabel-TV nettet.
Translation to Swedish:
"Utrustning som är kopplad till skyddsjord via jordat vägguttag
och/eller via annan utrustning och samtidigt är kopplad till kabel-TV
nät kan i vissa fall medfõra risk fõr brand. Fõr att undvika detta
skall vid anslutning av utrustningen till kabel-TV nät galvanisk
isolator finnas mellan utrustningen och kabel-TV nätet."
