2.1

Verifying the Electrical Circuits

Because large AC currents may be needed, each of the following items requires a
separate power circuit:
Each RTS module in the Sun Fire cabinet
External peripherals
Monitor used for diagnostics
The Sun Fire cabinet requires two dedicated 200–240 VAC, 30A circuit breakers. If
the optional RTS modules were installed, four dedicated 200–220 VAC, 30A circuit
breakers are required.
Caution – Do not attach other electrical equipment to the AC circuit for the Sun Fire
cabinet; the system reliability may be affected.
Note – If the appropriate electrical receptacle is not available in your country, the
connector may be removed from the cable. The cable can then be permanently
connected to a dedicated branch circuit by a qualified electrician. Check local
electrical codes for proper installation requirements.
