A defective electrical earth connection to any equipment may cause an electric shock hazard. This
hazard may pass through the signal cabling and to any other equipment interconnected. It is
recommended that electrical wiring is checked at frequent intervals and whenever alterations are
made.
If signal cables are added to or removed from this equipment, switch off the electrical power supply
to this and other connected equipment.
Pollution Degree 2 – Normally only non-conductive pollution occurs. Occasionally a temporary
conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
Installation Category 2 – Local level, appliances, portable equipment etc. with smaller transient
over-voltages than Installation Category 3 (Over-voltage Category).

special equipment or parts of equipment, telecommunication, electronic etc., with smaller transient
over-voltages than Installation Category 2.
