Ground Cable; Rack Or Cabinet Installation - Dell EMC S5200F-ON Series Setup Manual

Ground cable

To attach a ground cable to the switch, use the included M4 screws.
NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power
cord provides a ground path, Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch with a
dedicated ground wire.
NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to
attach a dedicated ground wire. The ground lug kit ships in a plastic bag placed with
the other accessories inside the shipping box. The ground lug bracket screws ship
attached to the switch. Before you install the DC switch in the dual-tray, attach the
ground lug and bracket to the switch using the included screws and then attach the
DC ground wire to the ground lug.
The ground cable is not included. The grounding lugs must be a UL-recognized, crimp-type
lug.
CAUTION: Grounding conductors
conductors.
NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an anti-oxidant compound before crimping. Also,
bring any unplated mating surfaces to a shiny finish and coat with an anti-oxidant
before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from contamination.
NOTE: The rack installation ears are not suitable for grounding.
To connect the ground cable to the switch:
1 Cut the user-supplied ground cable to the desired length.
The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt circuits. Use the
shortest cable route allowable.
2 Crimp the ground cable inside the pre-installed ground lug.
3 Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or
cabinet.
The rack installation ears are not a suitable grounding point.

Rack or cabinet installation

You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide,
EIA-310- E-compliant rack. Rack mounting for the S5232F-ON, S5248F-ON, and S5224F-
must be made of copper. Do not use aluminum
