2.1 Operator Safety

  • Use only proper tools and products suited for auto installations. Substandard products and installation procedures may cause failure to the equipment having your customer break down in dangerous areas.
  • Use correct thickness of wire to carry the entire current requirement for that circuit. Too thin wires will heat up and may start a fire causing injury.
  • Use fuses to protect each circuit separately. Joint circuits require large fuses which may heat and melt lesser circuits causing fires.
  • Solder joints, and cover it with shrink sleeve to prevent loose connections which may cause fires. Space solder-joints so that they do not sit next to each other in the harness thus minimizing the chance of a short circuit.
