MicroAP (NIC 411-3G and 411-3C) and Meter Labeling 2 FCC and Government Guidelines Safety Information WARNING: Severe shock and explosion hazard! Touching energized parts can result in massive equipment damage, and severe injury or death. Short-circuiting energized parts will result in blinding flash and explosion. Opening and closing electrical circuits can also produce dangerous and explosive arc flashes. Involuntary muscular reactions associated with electrical shock may result in other injuries.
MicroAP (NIC 411-3G and 411-3C) and Meter Labeling 2 FCC and Government Guidelines • 120V current can be just a lethal as higher voltages because current flow through a body depends upon the bodyʹs resistance. • Do not trust insulation and/or weatherproofing on a wire as protection from shock. • Use electrically insulated tools. Inspect portable electrical equipment or tools for defects and remove any defective devices from service immediately.
MicroAP (NIC 411-3G and 411-3C) and Meter Labeling 2 FCC and Government Guidelines • Do not set the ladder at too steep or too shallow of an angle. A rule of thumb is to stand erect with your toes against the bottom rails of the ladder, with your arms extended straight out. If you can set your palms on top of the rung that is at eye level, the ladder should be at the proper angle. If a ladder angle label is provided, follow its recommendations.
