Connecting The Input-Power Cables To The Redundant Ac-Power Switch; Installing The Redundant Ac-Power Switch In The Rack; Power Cable Clips - IBM 2145-8F2 Hardware Installation Manual

Perform the following steps to label each end of the two redundant ac-power
switch input-power cables:
1. Label the rack power-distribution end "Power source <name>, outlet <id> to
redundant ac-power switch <location> <MAIN | BACKUP> input." For
example, "Power source D2, outlet 4 to redundant ac-power switch pos 7
MAIN input." One cable is labeled "MAIN;" the other is labeled "BACKUP."
2. Label the redundant ac-power switch end "redundant ac-power switch
<location> <MAIN | BACKUP> input from Power source <name>, outlet
<id>." One cable is labeled "MAIN;" the other is labeled "BACKUP."
Connecting the input-power cables to the redundant ac-power
switch
You will find it easier to connect the input-power cables to the redundant ac-power
switch before you install the redundant ac-power switch in the rack.
Perform the following steps to connect the input-power cables to the redundant
ac-power switch:
1. Connect the main input-power cable to the redundant ac-power switch.
2. Connect the backup input-power cable to the redundant ac-power switch.
3. Secure both the redundant ac-power switch input-power cables using the clips
of the redundant ac-power switch. See Figure 24.

Installing the redundant ac-power switch in the rack

You must install the redundant ac-power switch in the rear of the rack before you
connect the redundant ac-power switch to the site power.
Perform the following steps to install the redundant ac-power switch in the rack:
1. Use the hardware location chart to determine where to install the redundant
ac-power switch in the rack. The redundant ac-power switch can be installed
horizontally in a rack slot or vertically in one of the side slots of the rack.
2. Position the four "C" clips in the rack's mounting bar, as shown in Figure 25 on
page 34.
