Electrical Safety
Always replace blown fuses with the correct type
and rating.
Ensure power supply cabling is adequately rated
for the unit's operating current and protected, in
case of short circuit, by a correctly rated fuse or
circuit breaker. This is particularly important for
supply feeds from the 24 V back-up batteries
which can deliver short-circuit currents of several
hundred amps.
