About the DS3800DFCF
The GE Firing Circuit Board DS3800DFCF features 17 single-pin connectors and 3 potentiometers for adjusting the current. The GE Firing Circuit Board DS3800DFCF also is populated with 7 jumpers. The GE Firing Circuit Board DS3800DFCF is installed in a high-voltage drive that can cause a serious electric shock to anyone who touches components inside while the power is present in the drive. Electric burns can also occur. Besides the dangers of electric current, the powerful motor and other moving parts can injure individuals. For these reasons, servicers and all qualified individuals must take precautions before starting any service or maintenance procedures.
First, examine the floor surrounding the drive and determine if it is moist from condensation or has standing puddles of water. Clean up any water and if condensation is a problem, use dehumidifiers to prevent condensation from building up. Inspect the area for ungrounded electric cords. Remove any ungrounded electric wires because of the danger from electric shock. No ungrounded devices should be in the area surrounding the drive also. Clean up oil or grease on the floor with detergents. The oil and grease present a hazard while working on the drive.
Locate all the emergency electrical shut off devices that shut off power to the drive. You should understand that multiple sources provide current to the drive and that the drive is not safe to touch until all power is removed. Make sure the emergency cutoffs are in good working order and that they are easily accessible in an emergency situation.
