SAFETY

Requirements of personnel

The person must be physically and mentally fit. Under no circumstances must the installation personnel be
under the influence of medication, alcohol or drugs.
Persons who are not healthy and fit must not work on roofs.

Personnel who are in training must only carry out work under the supervision of qualified personnel who
are authorized to train personnel.

Working safely

The company carrying out the installation is responsible for ensuring that the local regulations for work
safety and accident prevention are observed.

Breakthrough protection

Roof windows, skylights, large ventilation flaps etc. often cannot withstand the weight or impact of a person.
Such objects must be secured in a similar way as the edge of the roof.
Corrugated fibre cement roofs can be prone to breakthrough over the entire surface. Define walking routes
and secure them with load distribution measures.
On roofing or roof structures that do not have sufficient load-bearing capacity (e.g. thin sheets, corrugated
fibre cement), always work with load distribution aids.

Climbing aids

Only use suitable, intact and tested ladders. Set up and secure ladders according to instructions.
Separate rules apply to mechanical climbing aids (lifts, lifting platforms, ...).
Never use the PV mounting system as a climbing aid.

Weather conditions

In case of unsuitable weather conditions, work on the roof must not be continued any longer than neces-
sary - or not started at all.

Never carry out assembly work in strong winds. Strong wind exerts enormous forces on the large-area PV
modules. There is a risk that a module could be torn off the roof and people could be injured.

Never work in wet conditions or at temperatures below the freezing point. Depending on the roof pitch
there is a risk of slipping.

Dangers from the environment

Keep sufficient distance from overhead electrical lines. The following distances must be observed:
