Safety
Important Notice: Please read all instructions carefully before
attempting to install and use this product.
RAMP Bridge and all associated equipment should be installed in
accordance with applicable local and national electric code

Precaution
For best results, make sure the connector is clean and free from
any metal flakes/dirt. Tighten the connector using a torque
wrench. Also, do not remove the dust cap from connectors when
not in used.
