2. Warnings and legal information

This chapter includes important information about general legal issues relevant in the handling of
Thomson Technology products. Furthermore, some overall safety precautions will be introduced
and recommended. Finally, the highlighted notes and warnings, which will be used throughout the
document, are presented.

Legal information and responsibility

Thomson Technology takes no responsibility for installation or operation of the generator set. If
there is any doubt about how to install or operate the generator set controlled by the unit, the
company responsible for the installation or the operation of the set must be contacted.

The units are not to be opened by unauthorized personnel. If opened anyway, the

warranty will be lost.

Electrostatic discharge awareness

Sufficient care must be taken to protect the terminals against static discharges during the
installation. Once the unit is installed and connected, these precautions are no longer necessary.

Safety issues

Installing the unit implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore, the installation
should only be carried out by authorized personnel who understand the risks involved in working
with live electrical equipment.

measurement inputs as this could lead to injury or death.

Factory settings

The unit is delivered with certain factory settings. Given the fact that these settings are based on
average values, they are not necessarily the correct settings for matching the individual engine.
Thus precautions must be taken to check the settings before running the engine.

Definitions

Throughout this document a number of notes and warnings will be presented. To ensure that these
are noticed, they will be highlighted in order to separate them from the general text.
