3.2 INSTALLING THE TRBMIM-T

Only qualified personnel should "hot swap" modules in an
activated MMAC. (To "Hot Swap" means you do not have to
power down the MMAC to install or remove the TRBMIM-T.)
All other personnel must power down the MMAC before
installing or removing modules to eliminate the potential hazard
of electrical shock.
