1Installation Guide 98-1135 Rev AA 7Pre-InstallationBefore You BeginThis text contains the symbols which are explained below.NOTE: Notes provide important information about products and installation.ACAUTION: Cautions provide information that you must read to avoid making relatively moderate errors.UWARNING: Warnings provide special, must-read information. If you ignore a warning you may create a safety hazard, omit essential data, or make a critical error.Safety OverviewNOTE: Proper planning and thorough preparation are critical for successful installation. This chapter outlines basic requirements for the pre-installation phase.Prior to starting the installation process, you must develop and launch an installer safety training plan for initial, refresher, and ongoing safety training. Ensure that installers receive appropriate initial and refresher training to meet their specific safety-related responsibilities. Installers should be instructed in the following safety elements as well as any site-specific safety issues.•New duties for which the installer has not previously received training.•New processes and methodologies representing new risks that are introduced into the installation environment.•Situations where previously unidentified risks are reported.•Hazard Communication (Employee Right to Know)•Lifting•Safe driving•Use of hand tools•Confined spaceThe installation supervisory team assumes responsibility for ensuring that installers are properly trained, authorized, and continually qualified to perform their work. The team must also take responsibility for the safety of their installers and to assure safe work methodologies. Installers must
Chapter 1 - Pre-Installation Landis+Gyr8 98-1135 Rev AA Installation Guideunderstand that their supervisor’s responsibility does not relieve them from their individual responsibility to perform the work safely and to follow all safety rules and procedures applicable to their work.Preliminary Checks1. The installer will verify correct site, as specified on work order.2. The installer will verify that the site is safe for installer activity and equipment.3. The installer will notify the customer of installer presence and activity, telling the customer that meter access is required. If necessary, the installer will have the customer sign the work order.4. When installing meters, the installer will follow guidelines issued by the utility in addition to those given in this guide.5. The installer will never perform an installation during a lightning storm or under excessively wet conditions.Site RequirementsThe site must comply with the following criteria:1. There is no chance that another object will be set over the antenna.2. Some instances may require additional cable. Figure 1 - 1. Examples of some required toolsNOTE: Table 1-1.
