In order to avoid risk of electric shock, you must observe the
specified precautions when working with voltages greater than
120 V (60 V) DC or 50 V (25 V) eff AC. These values represent
the limits of safe-to-touch voltages in accordance with DIN VDE.
(Values given in brackets apply to medical or agricultural areas,
for example)
