Safety Precautions for High Voltage/Line Voltage

Very high voltages occur in electrical systems. Due to voltage flashover on damaged components, such as marten damage or touching live components, the risk of electric shock is likely. High voltage via the vehicle and line voltage via the building's mains supply can cause severe injury or even death if adequate care is not taken. Voltage flashover can occur e.g. on the primary and secondary side of the ignition system, the connection to the vehicle, the lighting systems or the wiring harness with plug connections. Therefore regard the following:

  • Only use power supply cables with grounding contact.
  • Always use the original cable set.
  • Regularly check cables and adapters for damage.
  • Perform any assembly work such as the connection of the product to the vehicle or the replacement of components only when ignition is switched off.
  • Do not touch live components when ignition is switched on.
