2.1 Important Safety Information and Installation
Precautions
Read the below instructions carefully for safety and installation.
Local codes and practices
Always install equipment in accordance with the National Electric Code and a in
manner acceptable to the local authority having jurisdiction.
Electrostatic sensitivity
This product and its components may be susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD). Use appropriate ESD grounding techniques while handling the product.
When possible, always run the product by its non-electrical components.
High voltage safety test
Experienced electricians, at first contact, always assume that hazardous voltages
may exist in any wiring system. A safety check using a known, reliable voltage
measurement or detection device should be made immediately before starting
work and when work resumes.
Lightning and high-voltage danger
Most electrical injuries involving low-voltage wiring result from sudden,
unexpected high voltages on usually low-voltage wiring. Low-voltage wiring can
carry hazardous high voltages under unsafe conditions. Never install or connect
wiring or equipment during electrical storms. Improperly protected wiring can have
a fatal lightning surge for many miles. All outdoor wiring must be equipped with
adequately grounded and listed signal circuit protectors, which must comply with
local, applicable codes. Never install wiring or equipment while standing in water.
