Installing the GSS in a Four-Post Rack
This section provides instructions for installing the GSS in a four-post rack. The
rack must be properly secured to the floor, ceiling, or upper wall, and where
applicable, to adjacent racks. The rack should be secured using floor and wall
fasteners and bracing as specified by industry standards.
Before installing the GSS in a rack, be sure you have read Chapter 2, Preparing
for Installation, to familiarize yourself with the proper site and environmental
conditions. Failure to read and follow these guidelines may lead to an
unsuccessful installation and possible damage to the GSS and its components.
Perform the steps below when installing and servicing the GSS.
When installing and servicing the GSS:
• Disconnect all power and external cables before installing the GSS.
• Install the GSS in compliance with your local and national electrical codes:
–
United States: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70; United
States National Electrical Code.
–
Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Part, I, CSA C22.1.
–
Other countries: If local and national electrical codes are not available,
see IEC 364, Part 1 through Part 7.
• Do not work alone under potentially hazardous conditions.
• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes
the equipment unsafe.
• Do not attempt to install the GSS in a rack that has not been securely anchored
in place. Damage to the GSS and personal injury may result.
• Due to the size and weight of the GSS, never attempt to install it by yourself.
Refer to Chapter 2, Preparing for Installation, the “Precautions for
Rack-Mounting” section for additional safety information on rack installation.
