Safety Precautions
Safety Information and Notices
Danger, Warning and Caution panels are used in this manual to describe the sources of hazards, their
consequences and how to avoid injury. Notice panels emphasize important or critical instructions.

DANGER
Danger indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury.

WARNING
Warning indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION
Caution indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in minor or
moderate injury.

NOTICE
Caution indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in minor or
moderate injury.
General Guidance
NOTICE
These safety precautions are for general guidance and supplement your own safety procedures and all
applicable laws and standards.

Skill Requirements of Personnel


Service and maintenance procedures must only be carried out by experienced and qualified
engineers, who are familiar with the procedures and the equipment.

Risk Assessment
A risk assessment has been performed on this product by Cummins, however a separate risk
assessment must be performed by the user/operating company to establish all personnel-related
risks. All affected users must be trained on the identified risks. Access to the Power PlanUGenerator
Set during operation must be restricted to persons who have been trained on these risks.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
All persons operating, servicing, maintaining or working in or with a power plant or a generator set
must wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Recommended PPE includes:
• Ear and Eye Protection
• Head and face protection
• Safety footwear
• Overalls that protect the lower arms and legs
Ensure that all persons are fully aware of the emergency procedures in case of accidents.

Noise
WARNING
Noise from a running alternator can cause serious injury by permanent hearing damage.
To prevent injury, wear appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE).

Maximum A-weighted noise emissions depend on alternator type. Contact the supplier for
application-specific details.
Electrical Equipment
DANGER
Live electrical conductors can cause serious injury or death by electric shock and burns.
To prevent injury and before removing covers over electrical conductors, isolate the generator set
from all energy sources, remove stored energy and use lock out/tag out safety procedures.

All electrical equipment can be dangerous if not operated correctly. Always install, service and
maintain the alternator in accordance with this manual. Work that requires access to electrical
conductors must comply with all applicable local and national electrical safety procedures for the
voltages involved and any site specific rules. Always use genuine branded replacement parts.

Lock Out/Tag Out


WARNING
Reconnected Energy Source
Accidental reconnection of energy sources during service and maintenance work can cause serious
injury or death by electric shock, burns, crushing, severing or trapping.
To prevent injury and before starting service and maintenance work, use appropriate lock out/tag out
safety procedures to keep the generator set isolated from energy sources. Do not defeat or bypass the
lock out/tag out safety procedures.
Lifting
DANGER
Falling mechanical parts can cause serious injury or death by impact, crushing, severing or trapping.
To prevent injury and before lifting:
• Check the capacity, condition and attachment of lifting equipment (crane, hoists and jacks,
including attachments to anchor, fix or support the equipment).
• Check the capacity, condition and attachment of accessories for lifting (hooks, slings, shackles
and eye bolts for attaching loads to lifting equipment).
• Check the capacity, condition and attachment of lifting fixtures on the load.
• Check the mass, integrity and stability (e.g. unbalanced or shifting center of gravity) of the load.

WARNING
Falling mechanical parts can cause serious injury or death by impact, crushing, severing or
trapping.
To prevent injury and before lifting the alternator:
• Do not lift the complete generator set by the alternator lifting fixtures.
• Keep the alternator horizontal when lifting.
• Fit drive end and non-drive end transit fittings to single bearing alternators to keep the main rotor
in the frame.

Do not remove the lifting label attached to one of the lifting points.
Alternator Operating Areas
WARNING
Debris ejected during catastrophic failure can cause serious injury or death by impact, severing or
stabbing.
To prevent injury:
• Keep away from the air inlet and air outlet when the alternator is running.
• Do not put operator controls near the air inlet and air outlet.
• Do not cause overheating by running the alternator outside rating plate parameters.
• Do not overload the alternator.
• Do not run an alternator with excessive vibration.
• Do not synchronize parallel alternators outside the specified parameters.

Always wear suitable PPE when working in the hatched areas


shown in the diagram or directly in-line with any air inlet/outlet.
Make sure this consideration is captured in your risk assessment.
Hazard Warning Labels
WARNING
Safety Cover Removed
A hazard exposed when a safety cover is removed can cause serious injury or death.
To prevent injury:
• Fit the safety labels at the locations shown on the back of the label sheet supplied.
• Observe the safety labels.
• Refer to the service manual before removing covers.

The generator set manufacturer is responsible for fitting the self-adhesive hazard warning labels
supplied with the alternator.
Replace labels that are missing, damaged or painted over.
