During transport, the transport units can slip off the lifting gear and cause serious injury or
death.
⇨ There must be no persons standing in the swinging area of lifted transport units.
⇨ Ensure that the lifting and transport gear used meets the requirements as regards
construction and load-bearing capacity.
⇨ Secure the transport unit against slipping off the lifting gear or transport gear with the
help of a slip-off protection.
⇨ Move the transport unit with lifting trucks or fork-lift trucks only on a transport pallet.
⇨ Observe the dimensions and weights of the transport unit (delivery note).
⇨ Observe the center of gravity of the transport units.
⇨ The center of gravity of the transport units is not always located under the lashing point.
Transport only panel groups with a max. width of 2.00 m or max. height of 2.60 m.
⇨ Do not step on the panels.
⇨ The lifting gear must not exert any forces on the panel walls under load.
⇨ Observe the instructions on the packing.
⇨ Before transporting without transport pallet, remove the accessories from the cable
compartment.
⇨ Move the transport units in packed condition for as long as possible. Leave the transport
units packed after unloading for as long as possible.

A transport unit consists of an individually packed panel or panel block on a transport pallet.
The switchgear accessories are packed in the cable compartment of the panel / in the left cable
compartment of the panel block or in a separate transport box, depending on the extent.
Possible packing types:
▪ PE protective film
▪ Seaworthy crate (switchgear is sealed with desiccant bags in PE film)
▪ other packaging types in special cases
Check the delivered switchgear and accessories for completeness, defects or transport damages.
1. Temporarily open the packing in a weatherproof place. In order to prevent pollution of the
switchgear, do not remove the PE film completely until reaching the final mounting position.
2. Check whether the delivery is complete using the delivery notes and packing lists.
3. Compare the serial number of the switchgear printed on the delivery note with the serial
number on the packing and the serial number on the rating plate.
4. Check whether all operating and installation instructions specified on the rating plate are
available.
5. Check whether the switchgear accessories are complete.
