Cautions and Warnings
Electrical Safety Precautions
Caution: During installation or maintenance procedures, wear a grounding wrist
strap to avoid ESD damage to the electronics of the appliance. Use a conductive wrist
strap attached to a good earth ground or to the appliance. You can attach it to the
connector beside the ESD symbol on the back.
Follow basic electrical safety precautions to protect yourself from harm and the
appliance from damage.
w
Be aware of the location of the emergency power off (EPO) switch, so that you can
quickly remove power to the appliance if an electrical accident occurs.
w
Remove all jewelry and other metal objects that might come into contact with
power sources or wires before installing or repairing the appliance. When you touch
both a live power source or wire and ground, any metal objects can heat up rapidly
and may cause burns, set clothing on fire, or fuse the metal object to an exposed
terminal.
w
Use a regulating, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the appliance from
power surges and voltage spikes, and to keep the appliance operating in case of
power failure.
w
Never stack the appliance on top of any other server or electronic equipment.
w
All appliances are designed to be installed on power systems that use TN earthing.
Do not install your device on a power system that uses either TT or IT earthing.
w
Make sure that the appliance has a direct physical connection to the earth during
normal use. When installing or repairing an appliance, always make sure that the
ground circuit is connected first and disconnected last.
