1.3 Safety instructions

Hazardous voltage – danger to life!
Do not work on energized equipment. Always de-
energize and ground the lines before working on the
equipment.
If live-line work must be performed, follow the
requirements of local occupational health and safety
regulations and employ personal protective equipment
(PPE) suitable for the voltages involved. It is the user's
responsibility to develop safe and adequate working
procedures complying with these requirements.
Fusesaver may be energized from either side.
Always consider all parts as energized until they
are de-energized, tested for absence of voltage and
grounded.

1.4 Proper application

The correct Fusesaver model must be selected for
the network application. Fusesaver is suitable for
use on networks with phase-to-phase maximum
voltage levels of 27 kV. The user must assess the
potential load and fault current levels at the point of
application and confirm these are within the
capability of the Fusesaver model selected.
These instructions cannot cover all possible variations in equipment options,
site specific restrictions, local procedures, and every contingency that may emerge
during installation, operation or maintenance. When additional information is
required to address any particular problem not adequately explained in this
manual, please contact your local Siemens Service Center for further advice.
