Connecting the CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 chassis to earth ground is required for
all DC-powered installations, and any AC-powered installation where compliance
with Telcordia (formerly Bellcore) grounding requirements is necessary. Have
the recommended tools and supplies available before you begin this procedure
(see Table 2-8).
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of
a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical
inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable
grounding is available.
