2.6 Safety Considerations
Please consider the following safety issues before
beginning the installation.
Although we have compiled this list of common safety
considerations, it should not be considered as
complete. It is not intended to take the place of your
good judgment, training, and experience.
2.6.1 Personal Safety Equipment and Clothing
Personal safety equipment and clothing including
high visibility vests, hard hats, gloves, electrical
shock or electrocution protection clothing and
equipment, safety shoes, safety glasses, face shields,
goggles, and hearing protection devices are just some
of the items available to you.
Choose the right equipment for the job. If you are
unsure of which safety equipment is recommended or
appropriate for the job, ask your supervisor or
foreman.
2.6.2 Electric Shock
As a trained installer of electrical equipment you are
aware of the dangers associated with installation of
electrical devices. Always be sure that the power to
the equipment, and all associated equipment, is
turned off and the vehicle battery is disconnected.
We also recommend that you wait for the period of
time specified in the warning message before
beginning any procedure. This waiting period is
required to allow electrically charged components to
discharge and minimize your exposure to the risk of
electric shock and electrocution. Use the equipment,
techniques, and procedures that you learned during
your training or apprenticeship or other electrical
industry recognized safety procedures.
If you are unsure of which techniques, procedures,
and protective equipment are recommended or
appropriate for the job, ask your supervisor or
foreman.
2.6.3 Explosion
Common automotive-type batteries produce an
explosive gas under some conditions. This gas may
easily be ignited by a spark or flame as you work on
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of explosion,
disconnect the battery, work in a well ventilated area,
avoid the use of devices that create sparks or use
open flames, and use the appropriate personal safety
equipment and clothing.
If you are unsure of which techniques, procedures, and
protective equipment are recommended or appropriate
for the job, ask your supervisor or foreman.
2.6.4 Chemical Burns
Common automotive-type batteries contain strong
acid that can cause personal injury if you come in
contact with the acid. To reduce exposure to the risk
of chemical burns wear appropriate protective
clothing and handle the battery with care.
If you are unsure of which techniques, procedures, and
protective equipment are recommended or appropriate
for the job, ask your supervisor or foreman.
2.7 Disposal of Device
Please dispose of the device in accordance with all
local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
