MX2820 System Manual
To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet loca-
tion or during a lightning storm.
Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge.
Before handling modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap
to prevent damage to electronic components. Place modules in
antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When
working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic
mat that is electrically grounded.

PROCEDURE

1. Connect shelf to frame ground.
a. Remove the metal cover over the power terminals if it has not already been removed.
b. Use an appropriate crimping tool and lug to fasten the lug to the ground wire.
c. Locate a nearby grounding screw on the equipment rack.
d. Secure the ground wire to frame ground with the lugged end of the ground wire.
e. Cut the ground wire length to reach from the grounding lug on the rack to the MX2820
ground terminal, located on the barrier strip connector of the backplane. Leave enough
slack to allow for tying to the rack, if required.
f. Use wire strippers to strip 5/8 inches of insulation from the ground wire. Apply an
approved antioxidant compound to the exposed wire.
g. Connect the stripped end of the ground wire into the MX2820 ground terminal (see
Figure 7-2).
