Caution

Allow the product reach the ambient temperature. Wait until the condensation has evaporated, this can take a few hours. Only then can the product be connected to the voltage / current supply and put into operation.

1

This product may have screw terminals with open electrical contacts. It is essential to ensure that the connection is made only when no voltage / current is applied. Secure the power supply to prevent accidental reconnection. Verify the absence of voltage using an appropriate meter.

Caution

The power supply line must be protected with a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) with a trip current ≤ 30 mA.

1

Always connect earth ground to the device at the indicated protective earth terminal (PE or earth symbol indication).

Attention

Always unplug a power plug from the socket only at the intended gripping surface, pull the power plug not the cord from a power outlet. Wires may rip out and pose danger to life though electric shock.
