Publication 1756-IN576B-EN-P - September 2003
Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the
module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical
resistance that can affect module operation.

WARNING
When you insert or remove the module while
backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. This
could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area
is nonhazardous before proceeding.
ATTENTION

static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component
boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the
