Chapter 3 Preparing Your Site for Installation
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers can be powered by a DC or AC source. Ensure that the equipment
grounding is present and observe power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all
products plugged into the power strip does not exceed 80% of the rating.

For example, the Cisco ASR 1002 Router DC power supply, with 16 Amp input rating must use an AWG #12 gauge wire for a 20Amp circuit breaker and
an AWG #10 gauge wire for a 30Amp circuit breaker.
All Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router AC power supplies require a 20 AMP circuit breaker.
Note
The AC and DC power supplies for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers support different types of power
supply switches.
