Electrical Safety Statement

Valley ClassicPlus Control Panel

Installation Of The Valley Electric Irrigation Machine

Valmont Industries Inc. does not install a differential (ground fault) circuit breaker in the control panel of the

Valley electric irrigation machine because the standards of protection vary according to country of destination.

The distributor must provide and install a differential (ground fault) circuit breaker that meets the standards of

the country where the Valley irrigation machine is installed.

In the European Union, differential circuit breaker protection is ﬁxed at a maximum of 24 volts.

Good grounding of the Valley irrigation machine is required.

• If resistance to ground is lower than 80 ohms, a differential (ground fault) circuit breaker of 300 mA will meet

requirements.

• If resistance to ground is between 80 and 800 ohms, a differential (ground fault) circuit breaker of 30 mA will

meet requirements.

The power supply installation and inspection of equipment protection components or machines are the re-

sponsibility of the installer. Valmont Industries Inc. is not responsible for the failure of equipment protection

components or machines not of their manufacture.

Valley pivot irrigation machines receiving power from a generator must have a cable connected from the irriga-

tion machine structure to a ground rod and another cable from the irrigation machine structure to the ground

terminal on generator in order for the differential (ground fault) circuit breaker to work.

• The resistance between the irrigation machine and the generator must be substantially below 80 ohms.

Safety

Valley ClassicPlus Control Panel

Use of Personal Protective Equipment

• People working in areas where there are potential electrical hazards must use, personal protective equipment

that is appropriate for the speciﬁc parts of the body to be protected and for the work to be performed. Refer to

U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations (Standards - 29 CFR) Safeguards for

personnel protection. - 1910.335, or applicable national, state or local regulations, for additional information.

• Personal protective equipment must be maintained in a safe, reliable condition and periodically inspected or

tested.

• Protective shields, protective barriers, or insulating materials must be used to protect each person from

shock, burns, or other electrically-related injuries while that person is working near exposed energized parts

which might be accidentally contacted or where dangerous electric heating or arcing might occur. When nor-

mally enclosed live parts are exposed for maintenance or repair, they must be guarded to protect unqualiﬁed

persons from contact with the live parts.

• Safety signs and tags. Safety signs, safety symbols, or accident prevention tags must be used where neces-

sary to warn people about electrical hazards which may endanger them.

Conductive Materials and Equipment

Materials and equipment that can conduct electricity must be handled in a way that will prevent them from

contacting energized power lines, exposed conductors or circuit parts.

• When handling long conductive objects (such as but not limited to truss rods, pipes, angles and ladders) in

areas with energized power lines, exposed conductors or circuit parts, work practices (such as the use of

insulation, guarding, and material handling techniques) must be used to minimize the hazard.

• Portable ladders must have non-conductive side rails.

• Do not wear conductive articles of jewelry and clothing (such as but not limited to watch bands, bracelets,

rings, key chains, necklaces, metalized aprons, cloth with conductive thread, or metal headgear) that could

come in contact with energized power lines, exposed conductors or circuit parts.

Fall Protection

Identify potential fall hazards and determine if fall protection equipment is appropriate for the task, before begin-

ning the work. Pay attention to hazards associated with routine and non-routine tasks. Inspect fall protection

equipment (harnesses, lanyards) and devices (guardrails, tie-off points) before each use. Use fall protection

equipment if required for the job. Be sure the fall protection equipment is right for the task, ﬁts properly, and is in

good condition. Refer to U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations Standards - 29

CFR 1926.500, 1926.501 and 1926.502, or applicable national, state or local regulations for more information.

• When using scaffolds, make sure there is proper access, full planking, stable footing, and guard railing.

• When using a boom lift, keep feet ﬁrmly on the platform of a boom lift, use fall protection equipment tied-off

at all times to the guardrail or tie-off point.

• When using a ladder, make sure the ladder is non-conductive and the correct size for the task. Read the

ladder user instructions and be sure the ladder is in good condition. Make sure ladder is set on stable footing

and at the correct angle.

Safety

Valley ClassicPlus Control Panel

Minimum Working Clearance

To reduce the risk of injury, all persons require adequate working clearance around the electrical panel or other

electrical equipment. The table below identiﬁes the minimum working clearance needed. Refer to U.S. Occupa-

tional Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations (Standards - 29 CFR) Safeguards for personnel pro-

tection. -1910.303(g)(1)(i), or any other applicable national, state or local regulations, for additional information.

Concrete, brick or tile walls shall be considered as grounded.

Qualiﬁed Person

A Qualiﬁed Person is one who, by possession of a recognized degree, certiﬁcate, or professional standing, or

who by extensive knowledge, training, and experience, has successfully demonstrated his/her ability to solve or

resolve problems related to the subject matter, the work, or the project.

Only qualiﬁed persons may work on electric circuit parts or equipment that have not been de-energized.

Refer to U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations Standards - 29 CFR 1926.32(m)

and 1910.333, or applicable national, state or local regulations for additional information.

Irrigation Equipment near Airports and Crop Dusting Aircraft

• If any part of the irrigation machine comes within 3200 ft (975 m) of an airport runway, especially the ap-

proach (ends) of the runway, additional warning markers may be required. In the United States, CFR Title 14,

Chapter I, Subchapter E, Part 77 – Safe, Efﬁcient Use, and Preservation of the Navigable Airspace describes

when marking is needed.

This document is available at: www.ecfr.gov

• Marking requirements vary depending on the location of the irrigation equipment relative to the runway, the

type of airport (Civil, Military, or Heliport) and other factors. Contact the local airport authority for guidance

and speciﬁc recommendations. In the United States, guidelines for marking structures near airports are

published by the Federal Aviation Administration in Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1L – Obstruction Marking

and Lighting.

Available here: www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/advisory_circulars

• For irrigation machines near private or unregulated airﬁelds, including farm-based airstrips, Valley strongly

recommends complying with the same standards and requirements as Civil airports as shown in Part 77.

• Regulations vary by country, contact your local aviation authority for guidance.

Overhang cables, including overhang back cables are a particular danger. In locations where low-ﬂying

aircraft are likely, such as within 1,500 ft (457 m) of an end of an airport runway, or where crop dusting aircraft

are common, Valley recommends adding obstruction markers to overhang cables to improve their visibility.

For large overhangs (36 ft / 10.97 m Heavy Duty and longer), ﬁve 12 in (300 mm) or 20 in (500 mm), aviation

orange marker balls are sufﬁcient. One near the rabbit ears, two in the middle of the back cables and two in

the middle of the highest overhang cables. Refer to Section 3.5 in AC70/7460-1 for additional details. Aviation

marker balls are available online and from a variety of aviation and airport safety equipment providers.

Safety

Valley ClassicPlus Control Panel

Overhead Power Lines

Assembling, towing or transporting irrigation machine components such as but not limited to the pivot point,

linear cart, span/drive unit assemblies, overhangs and/or corner assemblies underneath or near power lines is

extremely dangerous because of the risk of electrocution.

Operating equipment that elevates irrigation machine components, such as but not limited to an aerial lift or

crane, near power lines is extremely dangerous because of the risk of electrocution. Only qualiﬁed personnel

should operate this type of equipment. Before operating the equipment, qualiﬁed personnel must read the

equipment manufacturers’ operating and safety instructions.

Refer to U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Regulations (Standards - 29 CFR) Cranes

and derricks. - 1926.550, or any other applicable national, state or local regulations for additional information.

• Always presume that any overhead power line is an energized line unless and until the person(s) owning

the line and/or the electrical utility authorities indicate that it is not an energized line and it has been visibly

grounded.

• Before operating any equipment near any power line make sure the line has been de-energized and visibly

grounded at the point of work.

• Electrocution can occur without touching an electrical power line. Electricity, depending on the magnitude,

can jump or become induced into equipment or conductive materials that come in close proximity to, but do

not touch a power line. High wind, lightning, wet ground and other environmental conditions will increase the

possibility of electrocution and require additional consideration.

• Transmitter towers can induce the equipment or materials being handled with an electrical charge. Before

working or operating equipment near transmitter towers, make sure the transmitter is de-energized.

• Select the location where the span/drive unit will be assembled to ensure that neither the irrigation machine,

or the equipment used during the assembly process, will violate the minimum clearance guidelines.

• Never operate equipment or allow the load, ropes or tag lines within 10 ft (3.05 m) of any power line rated 50

kV or lower whether it is energized or not. For lines rated over 50 kV, the minimum clearance shall be 10 ft

(3.05 m) plus 0.4 inch (1.1 cm) for each kV over 50 kVs.

• Never assemble, tow, transport or allow irrigation machine components underneath or within 10 ft (3.05 m)

of any power line rated 50 kV or lower whether it is energized or not. For lines rated over 50 kV, the minimum

clearance shall be 10 ft (3.05 m) plus 0.4 inch (1.1 cm) for each kV over 50 kVs. Overhang support angles,

cables and spinner drive components regularly extend 10 ft to 12 ft (3.1 m to 3.7 m) above the irrigation

pipeline (span).

• Use barricades to identify areas where interference with overhead power lines could occur. Keep the assem-

bly, towing or transporting of irrigation machine components and the operation of equipment including load,

ropes or tag lines away from any power line, in the distances described above, whether the line is energized

or not.

• Always designate a person to observe clearance between the power line and all equipment being operated

or moved in order to give timely warning for all operations to STOP if the minimum clearance is violated.
