6.1 Overview
This chapter proposes the design principles that must be followed for mobile communication equipment with dangerous voltages. If the test method is not given in this standard, an appearance inspection shall be adopted, and a functional test may also be adopted. 6.2 Grounding
6.2.1 Safety grounding terminal
All accessible conductive parts shall be reliably connected to the safety grounding terminal. In addition, the following provisions shall also be met: a: Equipment connected to a fixed power supply line shall use a separate safety grounding terminal, which shall be as close as possible to the grid power terminal and shall be marked with a safety grounding symbol.

A separate conductor with sufficiently low impedance shall be used as a grounding connection to ensure that accessible parts are electrically safe under normal use conditions and fault conditions. b. The safety ground connection wire cannot be used for any other purpose. 6.3 Wiring
6.3.1 All wires and cables should be properly protected to prevent possible mechanical damage under normal working conditions. 6,3.2 The wires used for monitoring, keying, control or modulation inside the equipment and the wires connecting them to the external circuit should be adequately insulated to prevent contact with other wires inside the equipment. It is best to use structural isolation or ground shielding wire. 6.3.3 The terminal arrangement of the flexible cable should ensure that all its electrical connection wires are free of mechanical stress and the cable is not worn. 6.4 Insulation
6.4.1 Where the creepage distance in the equipment is less than that specified in Appendix A (Supplement), the insulating material used must be free of leakage traces and non-flammable. For materials other than ceramics, the comparative tracking index should be determined using the test method given in GB4207. If the comparative tracking index is equal to or greater than 175, the insulating material can be considered to be free of leakage traces. The flammability of insulating materials shall be tested using the test methods given in GB5169. 6.4.2 As long as thermionic tubes, pins and sockets, relays, plugs and sockets, printed boards, transistors, micro-components and devices comply with their respective technical specifications, smaller creepage distances are allowed inside them. 72
6.5 RF output connection parts
GB15842-1995
6.5.1 The RF output connection parts of the transmitter are electrically unsafe, especially when the feeder is open. Such wiring is allowed if it is a dangerous part that people cannot approach accidentally. Warning signs or shielding measures should be taken where necessary. See Section 5.4 for signs.
6.5.2 The RF output circuit should be designed to discharge any charge (such as static charge that may cause dangerous voltage) to the ground as much as possible.
6.5.3 Due to the influence of other transmitters working in the same place, high voltage may exist at the output of the transmitter. Measures should be taken to make the affected parts electrically safe. 7 High temperature, fire and other various hazards
7.1 Overview
The purpose of this chapter is to ensure that operators are not easily injured by overheated parts during normal work and to ensure that high temperature conditions that can cause fire or other hazards do not occur. This chapter also includes some other hazards that must be avoided in the design of equipment. When no test method is given, an appearance inspection should be used, and a functional test may also be used. 7.2 High temperature
7.2.1 Permissible temperature rise under normal use conditions The accessible parts of the equipment should not reach a temperature that can cause human injury, and other parts should not reach a temperature that degrades the electrical insulation performance and reduces the mechanical strength.
Under normal use conditions, the maximum safe temperature rise is specified in GB8898. 7.2.2 Temperature rise under fault conditions
Under specified fault conditions (according to Article 4.3), no component in the equipment should reach a temperature that can cause fire or release flammable and harmful gases.
Check with the following test method:
If a thermal controller, overload controller or fuse is used to limit the temperature rise, the temperature should be measured 2 minutes after the device is activated. a.
b. If there is no such device, the temperature should be measured continuously until the final temperature rise is reached, and the maximum time should not exceed 6 hours. Compare the measured temperature rise value with the maximum safe working temperature value of the components and materials used. The maximum temperature rise under fault conditions is specified in GB8898.
7.3 Fire prevention
The design of the equipment should minimize the possibility of fire and fire spread. The use of flammable components and materials, such as non-flame retardant plastics, should be avoided as much as possible. 7.4 Explosion
7.4.1 General requirements
All explosive components should be protected to avoid harm to personnel. 7.4.2 Explosion
Components that may cause harm due to explosion should be equipped with safety valves or an "explosive structure" for releasing energy to prevent the components from being subjected to excessive pressure.
The location of the safety valve or "explosive structure" should ensure that its operation will not cause harm to personnel. 7.5 Harmful radiation
7.5.1 Requirements
The structure of the transmitting equipment should be such that any stray or machine-generated radio frequency non-ionizing radiation it generates will not harm personnel. At 10 cm from the surface of the equipment, the field quantity parameters of any stray electromagnetic radiation field generated by the transmitting equipment should meet the requirements of Table 3. 73

a. When the operating frequency of the electromagnetic radiator is lower than 300MHz, the electric field strength and magnetic field strength should be measured separately. When the operating frequency of the electromagnetic radiator is higher than 300MHz, only the electric field strength can be measured. b. The measuring instrument should try to use a field strength meter or energy meter with an omnidirectional probe. When using a non-omnidirectional probe, the probe direction must be adjusted continuously during the measurement until the maximum field strength value is measured. The instrument frequency response unevenness and accuracy should not be worse than ±3dB. 7.6 Hazardous materials
All hazardous materials used in the equipment should be listed in the equipment manual, and the safe management, storage and handling methods of these materials should be fully explained, and the harmfulness of the materials contained in the components should be indicated at the same time. 7.7 Hazardous short circuit of low-voltage power supply
When the equipment contains high-current low-voltage components (such as large-capacity batteries), its wires and connecting terminals are electrically safe according to the provisions of Article 3.1, but if a short circuit occurs suddenly, it is easy to cause serious electric arc and overheating, which can cause harm to people and fire. Equipment containing such high-current low-voltage components should be designed and manufactured to minimize the possibility of dangerous short circuits. The battery contacts should be structurally capable of preventing unintentional short circuits of the battery. If a portable device or its battery is placed in a pocket with metal objects such as keys and hard disks, the device or battery should not have terminals that cause danger. Mobile wireless devices installed inside the carrier should be connected to their power supply through a fuse. When the device is powered directly by the battery using its own power cord (not from the car wiring), the fuse should be located near the car battery to avoid fire caused by short circuits in the battery wiring. 7.8 Safety of abnormal power supply procedures
7.8.1 Connecting and disconnecting the power supply
When connecting and disconnecting the power supply, it should not cause harm to personnel even if the switch of the mains power supply is in the "on position" 7.8.2 Protection against reverse polarity of power supply
When the power supply polarity is reversed, it should not cause harm to personnel. The structure of the battery of portable carrier equipment and portable equipment should be able to avoid reverse polarity.
