Precautions for Unenclosed Systems
During service, maintenance, or restoration, an optical fiber telecommunication
system is considered unenclosed. Under these conditions, follow these
practices:
1. Avoid exposing the eye to emissions from unterminated, energized optical
connectors at close distances.
2. Ensure that only authorized, trained personnel use optical test equipment
during installation or servicing.
3. Turn off all laser sources before scanning a fiber with an optical test set.
4. Keep all unauthorized personnel away from the immediate area of the
optical fiber systems during installation and service.
For guidance on the safe use of optical fiber communication systems in the
workplace, consult
ANSI Z136.2, American National Standard for Safe Use of
Lasers
in the U.S., or outside the U.S.,
IEC-60825, Part 2
.
CAUTION
Only authorized, trained personnel shall be permitted to do
service, maintenance, and restoration.
