position, and then slide the component into the rack.
• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The
total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
• Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a
rack.
CAUTION: A qualified electrician must perform all connections to DC power and
to safety grounds. All electrical wiring must comply with applicable local or
national codes and practices.
CAUTION: Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate
electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that
suitable grounding is available.
CAUTION: The system chassis must be positively grounded to the rack cabinet
frame. Do not attempt to connect power to the system until grounding cables
are connected. Completed power and safety ground wiring must be inspected by
a qualified electrical inspector. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground
cable is omitted or disconnected.
