Workspace Considerations

Power Outlet

Tip
• If you upgrade your computer, you may need to access the inside of the
computer. This may require you to remove the left and/or right side panels.
Therefore, make sure there is sufficient room adjacent to your computer should
you need to remove these side panels.
Be sure that the workplace where you intend to set up your computer:
• Provides sufficient desk space for your monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
• Reflects the way you use work materials and equipment. For example, make
sure the things that you use most regularly, such as the mouse, keyboard, or
telephone, are within easy reach.
The location should have sufficient lighting. However, make sure that the light
does not reflect on the monitor screen so that it makes viewing difficult.
The area should be comfortable and easily accessible to you and other individuals
who will be using the computer.
Locate the system unit and the monitor near a grounded 3-pronged AC power
outlet.
Make sure the outlet is not controlled by a wall switch. The AC power outlet
should be dedicated to the computer unit, monitor, and any other peripheral units
attached to the system. The computer should not share the outlet with any other
appliances.
Consider connecting your computer to a surge protector or uninterruptible power
supply to protect the unit against electrical surges or power outages.
