Italian to English Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation instruction manual
Non effettuare mai riparazioni sugli impianti elettrici o sulle macchine se non si è in possesso delle caratteristiche di professionalità previste dalla legislazione vigente.
Un impianto elettrico o una apparecchiatura nati sicuri possono, per errata riparazione, diventare pericolosi.
Inoltre la manomissione di un impianto o di un componente fa perdere agli stessi la garanzia del costruttore.

sorry ... forgot to add "safe" at the end ... translation should say
intrinsically (or inherently) safe
Example sentence:

(an electrical system or an) equipment which were originally safe

Nati sicuri refers to both
Peer comment(s):

agree James (Jim) Davis : Of course the only way to be "safe" and to protect your guarantee is to pay very expensive technicians who will probably put your life at risk anyway, but at least you are sure of a post-mortem payout which probably only extends to cost of appli.. anyway

agree philgoddard : Yes, but "was", not "were", and you can't say "an equipment". It's "an item of equipment".

the safest electrical equipment

To me saying "born safe" or "originally safe" is redundant given that they "become" dangerous after improper repairs.
Hence I would translate it as:

"Even the safest electrical equipment or system can become dangerous if not repaired properly.
Another alternative
"Improper repairs can make even the most safely built and installed electrical equipment or system dangerous."
