Outdoor Installation

Outdoor Installation Requirements

Do not work on outdoor equipment and cables in lightning, rainy, snowy, windy (wind force > 6) and other adverse weather conditions.
Ensure that the enclosure is class IP54 or higher.
Comply with all related local regulations.
Set up signs at the site to indicate a dangerous restricted area inaccessible to unauthorized personnel.
The scaffolding, platforms, and workbench must pass safety checks to ensure structural integrity. Do not overload the scaffolding.
Avoid simultaneous work at heights and on the ground. If such situations cannot be avoided, erect a special protective shed or other protective measures between the height and ground, and clear piles of tools and property from the area.
Do not loiter in the work area.
Any violations must be promptly pointed out by the site manager or safety supervisor and prompted for correction. If the problem persists, the personnel involved risks suspension that is regarded as absenteeism.

Operators are responsible for accidents resulting from violation of safety regulations or failure to make timely correction. Supervisors also bear responsibility.

Installation at Heights

Work performed 2 m (6.56 ft.) above the ground is regarded as work at heights.
Work at heights, comply with related local regulations.
Only skilled and trained personnel are allowed to work at heights.
Stop such work in any of the following conditions: adverse weather, wet steel tubes, and other risky situations. Resume work only after a Huawei safety director and related technical personnel have checked all the equipment.
The ladder used in work at heights must be intact and skid-resistant to ensure safe climbing. The recommended angle between the ladder and the ground is 75°. When using a step ladder, the rope must be strong and the ladder must be supported.
Place guardrails and warning signs around protrusions and holes to avoid accidents.

Before proceeding, carefully check climbing and safety tools, such as the safety helmet, safety belt, ladder, springboard, scaffolding, and hoisting equipment. If any tool does not meet requirements, fix or replace it immediately, or postpone the work.
Wear proper safety PPE and a helmet as well as a belt or waist rope secured to a robust support. Do not tie the belt or waist rope to an unstable object or metal with sharp edges. A fastener that detaches may cause a falling accident.
Avoid dropping machinery and tools that may cause injury.
Transport all objects from or to the ground level by a strong rope, basket, elevated vehicle, or crane instead of throwing them.
Do not pile up scaffolding, materials, and other debris on the ground under the work area at heights that cause traffic obstructions.
After completion, disassemble the scaffolding layer by layer from top to bottom. Do not disassemble top and bottom layers at the same time. When disassembling a part, prevent the collapse of other parts.
