2. Warnings and legal information
Legal information and responsibility
THOMSON TECHNOLOGY takes no responsibility for installation or operation of the engine/generator
set. If there is any uncertainty regarding how to install or operate the engine controlled by the MEC
310, the company responsible for the installation or the operation of the engine/generator set should
be contacted.
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.
Installing the MEC 310 controller implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore,
authorized personnel, who understand the risks involved in working with live electrical equipment,
should only undertake the installation.
The controllers are not to be opened by unauthorized personnel.
If opened / warranty seals broken, the warranty will be void.
Electrostatic discharge awareness
Safety issues
AC 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
generic values, they are not necessarily the correct settings for matching the individual engine.
Therefore precautions must be taken to ensure the suitability of the settings before running the
engine. In some cases protection settings may be disabled in an effort to allow the commissioning
agent ease of initial startup. As such all alarm/shutdown protection settings must be reviewed to
ensure the engine generator set is adequately protected against catastrophic failure.
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.
Notes
Warnings
bear in mind.

guidelines are not followed.
