  • Page 8 – For racks with AC power, connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical outlet. Ensure that the outlet supplies proper voltage and phase rotation according to the system rating plate. – For racks with a DC power distribution panel (PDP), connect the customer’s DC power source to the PDP.
  • Page 9 v Each rack cabinet might have more than one power cord. – For AC powered racks, be sure to disconnect all power cords in the rack cabinet when directed to disconnect power during servicing. – For racks with a DC power distribution panel (PDP), turn off the circuit breaker that controls the power to the system unit(s), or disconnect the customer’s DC power source, when directed to disconnect power during servicing.
  • Page 10 CAUTION: Removing components from the upper positions in the rack cabinet improves rack stability during relocation. Follow these general guidelines whenever you relocate a populated rack cabinet within a room or building. v Reduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing equipment starting at the top of the rack cabinet.
