Equipment Protection Against Electrostatic Discharges; Cautions To Avoid Equipment Damage - Alcatel-Lucent 9500 User Manual

EMC General Norms - Turn-up, Tests and Operation
• Preset the electrical units as required to guarantee EMC compatibility
• Check that the equipment is operating with all the shields properly positioned
(dummy covers, ESD connector protection)
• To properly use EMC-compatible equipment, follow the instructions provided.
EMC General Norms - Maintenance
• Before inserting the shielded unit, which will replace the faulty or modified unit,
clean and degrease all peripheral surfaces (contact springs, connection points, and so

• Clean the dummy covers of the spare units as well.
• Fasten the units to the subrack with screws.
2.6 — Equipment protection against electrostatic
discharges
Before removing ESD protection from the monitors, connectors and so on, follow the
precautionary measures stated above. Ensure that ESD protection is not removed until
maintenance and monitoring operations are terminated.
Most electronic devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharges; therefore the following
warning label has been affixed to the equipment:
Follow the precautionary measures stated previously when touching the electronic parts
during the installation and maintenance phases.
Workers are supplied with anti-static protection devices consisting of:
• an elasticized band worn around the wrist
• a coiled cord connected to the elasticized band and to the stud on the subrack
