Figure 5 – Tamper-Evident Labels Applied to Switch
The tamper-evident seals are produced from a special thin gauge white vinyl with self-
adhesive backing. Any attempt to open the switch will damage or destroy the tamper-
evident seals or the painted surface and metal of the module cover. Since the tamper-
evident labels have non-repeated serial numbers, the labels may be inspected for damage
and compared against the applied serial numbers to verify that the module has not been
tampered. An intact label is shown in Figure 6, with a visible serial number and no
breaks.

Attempting to remove a label breaks it or continually tears off small fragments as
depicted in Figure 7. Other signs of tamper-evidence include a strong smell of organic
solvents, warped or bent cover metal, and scratches in the paint on the module.
