Connecting a 3-kW AC Power Supply to AC Power Sources

b) Hold the handle on the power supply with one hand, place your other hand under the power supply to support its
weight, and position the power supply with its back end at the open power supply bay.
c) Slide the unit all the way into the power supply bay until one of the following situations occurs:
• For a 3.5-kW power supply, the built-in latch secures the power cable to the power supply.
What to do next
• For an AC and HVAC/HVDC (when used with an input AC source) power supply, you must connect it
Connecting a 3-kW AC Power Supply to AC Power Sources
You use one power cord to connect a 3-kW power supply to its AC power source and to ground the power
supply. Depending on the power mode that you use for the switch, you either connect all of the power supplies
to one AC power source or you connect half of the power supplies to one AC power source and the other half
to another AC power source:
• For combined power mode (no power redundancy), you need enough power supplies to power all switch
• For power supply redundancy mode (n+1 redundancy mode), you need enough power supplies to power
• For input source redundancy (grid redundancy) mode or full redundancy mode, you need twice the
Before you begin
Before you connect power supplies to one or two power sources, ensure all of the following:
• You have receptacles for one or two AC power sources within reach of the power supply cables. The
• The AC power sources are rated as follows:

number of power supplies needed to power the switch operations. You connect half of the power supplies
to one power source for active power and the other half to another power source for redundant power.
You must ensure that the power supplies on the left side of the chassis are connected to one grid and that
the power supplies on the right side of the chassis are connected to the other grid.
number of power sources depends on the power mode to be used for the switch.
• Combined power (no power redundancy)—One AC power source
• Power supply redundancy (n+1 redundancy)—One AC power source
• Input source redundancy (power-grid redundancy)—Two AC power sources
• Full redundancy—Two AC power sources
