Pre-Installation Requirements - Extreme Networks Summit X150 Series Hardware Installation Manual

Installing Summit External Power Supplies
CAUTION
Be sure that proper ESD controls are in use before switch maintenance is performed. This includes but is
not limited to wrist straps that are grounded to the switch chassis and earth grounds.
WARNING!
Extreme Networks AC power supplies do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Remove the
wall plug from the electrical outlet to disconnect the power to an Extreme Networks AC power supply. Make sure
that this connection is easily accessible.
When the power supply is outside the chassis (not installed), do not plug the power supply into an electrical outlet.
Plugging an uninstalled AC power supply into an electrical outlet exposes you to a hazardous energy and is a
potential fire hazard.
WARNING!
Always be sure that the DC circuit is de-energized before connecting or disconnecting the DC wiring
harness at the DC power socket on the rear of the EPS-150DC unit, and before connecting or disconnecting the
redundant power cord between the switch and the EPS-150DC unit.
