Planning The Installation - Avaya BCM50 Hardware Installation Manual

Planning the Installation

Before you install the BCM50 Main Unit or BCM50 Expansion Unit, it is good
practice to follow a preparation check as follows.
Preparation checklist:
 Number of lines / handsets / ATA2's etc
 Stores check list
 Electrical requirements
Ensure you meet the following electrical requirements:
 Power must be supplied from a non-switched, unobstructed outlet
within 1.5 m (5 ft.) of the BCM50 units.
 The supplied power must be a dedicated 220 V to 240 V ac nominal or
(110 V to 120 V ac nominal) or 50/60 Hz, 15 A minimum service with a
third wire safety ground. The third wire safety ground provides shock
protection and prevents electromagnetic interference.
 You can connect the BCM50 power supply to a power bar. The total
length of the power cables from the power supply to the electrical outlet
(including power bar) must not exceed 2 m (6.5 ft.).
 You must use a power bar approved by an appropriate National Test
Body, with a third wire ground.
 Do not use an extension cord between the power supply and the power
bar, or between the power bar and the electrical outlet.
Danger: Risk of electric shock
The safety of this product requires connection to an outlet with a third wire
ground. Use only with the supplied BCM50 power supply and a three wire
power outlet.
Caution: Check ground connections
Ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone
lines, and internal metal water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. If these ground connections are not connected together, contact the
appropriate electrical inspection authority. Do not try to make the connections
yourself.
