Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection
Connecting the Cisco ASR 1002-X chassis to ground is required for all DC-powered installations and
AC-powered installation where compliance with Telcordia grounding requirements is necessary.
Caution
The dual-lug chassis ground stud must be installed and all the cards and filler plates must be fully inserted,
screwed in, and earthed to prevent a potential hazard in a telecom line.
Have the recommended tools and supplies available before you begin this procedure.
Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence
of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician
if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024
Before you connect power or turn on power to your chassis, you must provide an adequate chassis ground
(earth) connection for the chassis. The chassis ground lug (two) and the respective screws (four) are provided
in the accessory kit that shipped with your Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.
Caution
The grounding wire is always the first to be installed or connected and the last to be removed or disconnected.
The following tools, equipment, and supplies are necessary to connect the system ground to the chassis:
• P
• Dual-lug chassis ground component (two) and respective screws (four) (shipped with the accessory kit)
• Grounding wire
