Safety requirements on installation and maintenance of fuel level sensor 

 
During installation of the fuel level sensor you should take organizational and technical 
measures for ensuring safe work with instrumentation, accessories and consumables. 
 
Responsibility for the implementation of security measures is imposed to technical personnel 
that install the fuel level sensor, and to the staff that is responsible for the equipment of place 
where the work will be performed. 
  
At the place of work fire safety rules should be kept in accordance with GOST (Ukrainian: ГОСТ 
12.1.004 "ССБТ. Fire Safety. General requirements", and rules of electrical safety in 
accordance with ГОСТ 12.1.019" ССБТ. Electrical safety. General requirements. " 
 
On motor transport at the place of work labour safety rules should be kept in accordance with: 
ДНАОП 0.00-1.28-97 "Rules of safety on motor transport" (in Ukraine) or ПОТ РM 027-2003 
"Inter-sectoral labour safety rules on motor transport» (in Russian Federation).
