Installing Power Modules

This section provides instructions to install AC Power Supply Units (PSUs) and
DC Power Entry Modules (PEMs) in each E-Series system. E-Series systems
may contain only one type of power module—AC or DC.
Unless otherwise stated, each AC and DC power supply for each E-Series
system is shipped with a Dell Force10-approved power cord and only that cord
should be used to connect the power supply to the appropriate outlet.
WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, make sure the system is grounded
properly. If you do not ground your equipment correctly, excessive emissions
may result. Use a qualified electrician to ensure that the power cables meet
your local electrical requirements.
