Next steps
1. Connect the power cable to the PSU, and plug the cable into a power outlet.
NOTE:
If front bezel is installed, then en route the external cables through the gaps on the sides of bezel tray.
CAUTION:
When connecting the power cable to the PSU, secure the cable to the PSU with the strap.

Wiring instructions for a DC power supply unit
Your system supports up to two –(48–60) V DC power supply units (PSUs).
NOTE:
For equipment using –(48–60) V DC power supply units (PSUs), a qualified electrician must perform all
connections to DC power and to safety grounds. Do not attempt connecting to DC power or installing grounds yourself.
All electrical wiring must comply with applicable local or national codes and practices. Damage due to servicing that is
not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow all safety instructions that came with the
product.
CAUTION:
Wire the unit with copper only, unless otherwise specified, use only 10 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wire
rated minimum 90ºC for source and return. Protect the –(48–60) V DC (1 wire) with a branch circuit over-current
protection rated 50 A for DC with a high interrupt current rating.
CAUTION:
Connect the equipment to a –(48–60) V DC supply source that is electrically isolated from the AC source
(reliably grounded –(48–60) V DC SELV source). Ensure that the –(48–60) V DC source is efficiently secured to earth
(ground).
