    1.6.4.5 Preventing sparks To prevent a potential hazard from mechanical contact, the coupling guard must be non-sparking. To avoid the potential hazard from random induced current generating a spark the ground contact on the baseplate must be used. Avoid electrostatic charge: do not rub non- metallic surfaces with a dry cloth, ensure cloth is damp.
