EXPLOSIVE. Install the fuel supply system according to applicable fuel-gas codes. Before

placing the standby electric system into service, fuel system lines must be properly purged and

leak tested according to applicable code. After installation, inspect the fuel system periodically

for leaks. Make sure there are no gas leaks, use digital gas detector.
