Do not work with power on during installation.
Do not install, use, or operate outdoor equipment and cables (including but not limited to
moving equipment, operating equipment and cables, inserting connectors to or removing
connectors from signal ports connected to outdoor facilities, working at heights, and
performing outdoor installation) in harsh weather conditions such as lightning, rain,
snow, and level 6 or stronger wind.
After installing the equipment, remove idle packing materials such as cartons, foam,
plastics, and cable ties from the equipment area.
In the case of a fire, immediately leave the building or the equipment area, and turn on
the fire alarm bell or make an emergency call. Do not enter the building on fire in any
case.
Do not scrawl, damage, or block any warning label on the equipment.
Tighten the screws using tools when installing the equipment.
Understand the components and functioning of a grid-tied PV power system and relevant
local standards.
Repaint any paint scratches caused during equipment transportation or installation in a
timely manner. Equipment with scratches cannot be exposed to an outdoor environment
for a long period of time.
Do not open the host panel of the equipment.
Do not install other equipment on the top of a container without evaluation by Huawei.
Do not perform operations such as arc welding, drilling, and cutting on the top of a
container. Otherwise, the top of the container may be damaged, which may cause water
leakage. When performing operations (such as hoisting) over the top of a container, take
measures to protect the top of the container against damage. After construction, check
the container for protective paint damage. If the top of the container is damaged, repair it
in a timely manner.
Personal Safety
If there is a probability of personal injury or equipment damage during operations on the
equipment, immediately stop the operations, report the case to the supervisor, and take
feasible protective measures.
Use tools correctly to avoid hurting people or damaging the equipment.
Do not touch the energized equipment, as the enclosure is hot.
When operating or maintaining the equipment, wear high-voltage insulation gloves, a
safety helmet, insulation shoes, and insulation clothing. When commissioning or
operating the ring main unit, operate the general protection chamber using an insulated
stool.
1.2 Operator Qualifications
Personnel who plan to install or maintain Huawei equipment must receive thorough
training, understand all necessary safety precautions, and be able to correctly perform all
operations.
Only qualified professionals or trained personnel are allowed to install, operate, and
maintain the equipment.

Only qualified professionals are allowed to remove safety facilities and inspect the
equipment.
Personnel who will operate the equipment, including operators, trained personnel, and
professionals, should possess the local national required qualifications in special
operations such as high-voltage operations, working at heights, and operations of special
equipment.
Only professionals or authorized personnel are allowed to replace the equipment or
components (including software).
Professionals: personnel who are trained or experienced in equipment operations and are clear of the
sources and degree of various potential hazards in equipment installation, operation, and
maintenance
Trained personnel: personnel who are technically trained, have required experience, are aware of
possible hazards on themselves in certain operations, and are able to take protective measures to
minimize the hazards on themselves and other people
Operators: operation personnel who may come in contact with the equipment, except trained
personnel and professionals
1.3 Electrical Safety
Grounding
For the equipment that needs to be grounded, install the ground cable first when
installing the equipment and remove the ground cable last when removing the
equipment.
Do not damage the ground conductor.
Do not operate the equipment in the absence of a properly installed ground conductor.
Ensure that the equipment is connected permanently to the protective ground. Before
operating the equipment, check its electrical connection to ensure that it is securely
grounded.
General Requirements
Before connecting cables, ensure that the equipment is intact. Otherwise, electric shocks or
fire may occur.
Ensure that all electrical connections comply with local electrical standards.
Obtain approval from the local electric utility company before using the equipment in
grid-tied mode.
Ensure that the cables you prepared meet local regulations.
Use dedicated insulated tools when performing high-voltage operations.

Do not connect or disconnect power cables with power on. Transient contact between the core
of the power cable and the conductor will generate electric arcs or sparks, which may cause
fire or personal injury.
Before making electrical connections, switch off the disconnector on the upstream device
to cut off the power supply if people may contact energized components.
Before connecting a power cable, check that the label on the power cable is correct.
If the equipment has multiple inputs, disconnect all the inputs before operating the
equipment.
Cabling
When routing cables, ensure that a distance of at least 30 mm exists between the cables
and heat-generating components or areas. This prevents damage to the insulation layer of
the cables.
Bind cables of the same type together. When routing cables of different types, ensure that
they are at least 30 mm away from each other.
Ensure that the cables used in a grid-tied PV power system are properly connected and
insulated and meet specifications.
1.4 Site Requirements
Ensure that the equipment is installed in a well ventilated environment.
To prevent fire due to high temperature, ensure that the ventilation vents or heat
dissipation system are not blocked when the equipment is running.
Do not expose the equipment to flammable or explosive gas or smoke. Do not perform
any operation on the equipment in such environments.
1.5 Mechanical Safety
Hoisting Devices
Do not walk under hoisted objects.
Only trained and qualified personnel should perform hoisting operations.
Check that hoisting tools are available and in good condition.
Before hoisting objects, ensure that hoisting tools are firmly secured onto a load-bearing
object or wall.
Ensure that the angle formed by two hoisting cables is no more than 90 degrees, as
shown in the following figure.
