2 Safety
This technical file contains detailed descriptions on the safe and proper in-
stallation, connection, commissioning, operation, and monitoring of the prod-
uct.
▪ Read this technical file through carefully to familiarize yourself with the
product.
▪ This technical file is a part of the product.
▪ Read and observe the safety instructions provided in this chapter in partic-
ular.
▪ Observe the warnings in this technical file in order to avoid function-re-
lated dangers.
▪ The product is manufactured on the basis of state-of-the-art technology.
Nevertheless, risks to life and limb for the user or impairment of the prod-
uct and other material assets may arise in the event of improper use.
2.1 Appropriate use
ETOS® IM is used to record and monitor a transformer's different measured
values. The product is designed solely for use in electrical energy systems
and facilities.
Bushing monitoring The optional bushing monitoring function is used to monitor capacitance-
graded bushings on power transformers in the Um = 123...420 kV voltage
levels (with voltage levels up to 765 kV on request). You can use this func-
tion to detect breakdowns at partial capacitances in the bushing and to moni-
toring aging in the bushings.
If used as intended, in compliance with the requirements and conditions
specified in this technical file and observing the warning notices in this tech-
nical file and attached to the product, the product does not pose a risk of in-
jury or damage to property or the environment. This applies throughout the
service life of the product, from delivery, installation and operation to re-
moval and disposal.
The following is considered appropriate use:
▪ Operate the product in accordance with this technical file, the agreed-
upon delivery conditions and the technical data.
▪ Ensure that all necessary work is performed by qualified personnel only.
▪ Only use the equipment and special tools included in the scope of delivery
for the intended purpose and in accordance with the specifications of this

bushing specified by the bushing manufacturer.
▪ The product is not a protective device. Do not use it to handle safety-re-
lated functions.
▪ Risk of explosion and fire from highly flammable or explosive gases, va-
pors, or dusts. Do not operate product in areas at risk of explosion.
▪ The product is not intended for use in environments subject to strong cor-
rosion effects.
▪ Unauthorized or inappropriate changes to the product may lead to per-
sonal injury, material damage, and operational faults. Only modify product
following discussion with Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH.
2.3 Fundamental Safety Instructions
To prevent accidents, disruptions and damage as well as unacceptable ad-
verse effects on the environment, those responsible for transport, installa-
tion, operation, maintenance and disposal of the product or parts of the prod-
uct must ensure the following:
Personal protective equipment
Loosely worn or unsuitable clothing increases the danger of becoming
trapped or caught up in rotating parts and the danger of getting caught on
protruding parts. This poses a danger to life and limb.
▪ Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as a helmet, work
gloves, etc. for the respective activity.
▪ Never wear damaged personal protective equipment.
▪ Never wear rings, necklaces, or other jewelry.
▪ If you have long hair, wear a hairnet.
Work area
Untidy and poorly lit work areas can lead to accidents.
▪ Keep the work area clean and tidy.
▪ Make sure that the work area is well lit.
▪ Observe the applicable laws for accident prevention in the relevant coun-
try.

Working during operation
The product may only be operated in a sound, operational condition. Other-
wise it poses a danger to life and limb.
▪ Regularly check the operational reliability of safety equipment.
▪ Comply with the inspection work, maintenance work and maintenance in-
tervals described in this technical file.
Invisible laser radiation
Looking directly into the beam or the reflected beam can cause eye damage.
The beam is emitted at the optical connections or at the end of the fiber-optic
cables connected to them on the assemblies. Read the chapter "Technical
Data" [►Section 12, Page 385] for further information.
▪ Never look directly into the beam or the reflected beam.
▪ Never look into the beam with the aid of optical instruments such as a
magnifying glass or a microscope.
▪ In the event that the laser beam strikes your eyes, close your eyes imme-
diately and move your head out of the path of the beam.
Working with current transformers
Dangerous high voltages may occur when a current transformer is operated
with an open secondary circuit. This can lead to injuries and property dam-
age.
▪ Never operate a current transformer with an open secondary circuit; short-
circuit the current transformer to prevent this.
▪ Observe the information in the current transformer operating instructions.
Explosion protection
Highly flammable or explosive gases, vapors and dusts can cause serious
explosions and fire.
▪ Do not install or operate the product in areas where a risk of explosion is
present.
Safety markings
Warning signs and safety information plates are safety markings on the
product. They are an important aspect of the safety concept.
▪ Observe all safety markings on the product.
▪ Make sure all safety markings on the product remain intact and legible.
▪ Replace safety markings that are damaged or missing.

Ambient conditions
To ensure reliable and safe operation, the product must only be operated
under the ambient conditions specified in the technical data.
▪ Observe the specified operating conditions and requirements for the in-
stallation location.
Modifications and conversions
Unauthorized or inappropriate changes to the product may lead to personal
injury, material damage and operational faults.
▪ Only modify the product after consultation with the manufacturer.
Spare parts
Spare parts not approved by the manufacturer may lead to physical injury,
damage to the product and operational faults.
▪ Only use spare parts approved by the manufacturer.
▪ Contact the manufacturer.
2.4 Personnel qualification
The person responsible for assembly, commissioning, operation, mainte-
nance and inspection must ensure that the personnel are sufficiently quali-
fied.
Electrically skilled person
The electrically skilled person has a technical qualification and therefore has
the required knowledge and experience, and is also conversant with the ap-
plicable standards and regulations. The electrically skilled person is also pro-
ficient in the following:
▪ Can identify potential dangers independently and is able to avoid them.
▪ Is able to perform work on electrical systems.
▪ Is specially trained for the working environment in which (s)he works.
▪ Must satisfy the requirements of the applicable statutory regulations for
accident prevention.
Electrically trained persons
An electrically trained person receives instruction and guidance from an
electrically skilled person in relation to the tasks undertaken and the poten-
tial dangers in the event of inappropriate handling as well as the protective
devices and safety measures. The electrically trained person works exclu-
sively under the guidance and supervision of an electrically skilled person.

Operator
The operator uses and operates the product in line with this technical file.
The operating company provides the operator with instruction and training
on the specific tasks and the associated potential dangers arising from im-
proper handling.
Technical Service
We strongly recommend having maintenance, repairs and retrofitting carried
out by our Technical Service department. This ensures that all work is per-
formed correctly. If maintenance is not carried out by our Technical Service
department, please ensure that the personnel who carry out the mainte-
nance are trained and authorized by Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH to
carry out the work.
Authorized personnel
Authorized personnel are trained by Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH to
carry out special maintenance.
2.5 Personal protective equipment
Personal protective equipment must be worn during work to minimize risks to
health.
▪ Always wear the personal protective equipment required for the job at
hand.
▪ Never wear damaged personal protective equipment.
▪ Observe information about personal protective equipment provided in the
work area.
Personal protective equipment to be worn at all times
