Is it harmful or completely safe to leave phantom powered microphone turned on all day?

While I don't normally do so, sometimes when I'm using the mic, I just leave it connected for days in between recording. I do shut down the system at night. It's one of the Behringer large diaphragm condenser mic.

Thanks!

Albert
