AS54.00-Z-0001-01A Risk Of Death When Touching Components On Vehicles With High-voltage On-board Electrical System

DANGER: Do not touch components and open lines of the high-voltage on-board electrical system. Persons who are carriers of electronic implants (e.g. cardiac pacemakers), must not carry out any work on high-voltage on-board electrical systems.

High-voltage on-board electrical system
Voltage values of > 120 volt apply in the entire high-voltage on- board electrical system.

Risk of death caused by electric shock
Burns, fibrillation of the heart or cardiac arrest due to electric shock can occur when touching components of the high-voltage on-board electrical system. The consequences of an electric shock may also only occur after a few minutes, therefore a doctor should be consulted in every case.

Safety instructions/precautions
- Persons who are carriers of electronic implants (e.g. cardiac pacemakers), must not carry out any work on high-voltage onboard electrical systems.
- Open lines and components of the high-voltage on-board electrical system must not be touched under any circumstances.
In particular this affects accident vehicles before the high- voltage on-board electrical system is put out of action.
- Work on components of the high-voltage on-board electrical system may only be carried out by persons proven to have taken part in special qualification measures and who have completed special electrotechnical training and are authorized.
