Connecting the Tape Library Power Cable
Connecting the Tape Library Power Cable
This section describes the procedure to connect the tape library power cable. If
the tape library has the duplicate power supply feature, be sure that each power
supply is connected to its own circuit breaker.
Routing the Power Cable
To route the power cable:
1. Check that the tape library circuit breaker is in the down (OFF) position.
2. Use a 5/16-inch nut driver (or to remove the Torx bit from your driver) to
remove the nut that holds the cable strain relief plate in place. Place the
strain relief plate to the side.
3. Insert the female connector through the hole in the tape library floor. Be sure
the power cable is labeled with your circuit breaker number and location.
4. Insert the power cable connector into the bottom of the AC power distribution
unit.
5. Obtain the strain relief bracket and nut, and attach the strain relief bracket.
WARNING. To avoid injury, do not connect the power cable until indicated in the instructions.
Be sure the circuit breakers on the tape library power supply and for the power outlet are
turned off.
Note. If your installation requires this cable to be under the floor, carefully pull the cable up
through the hole in the floor.
Note. Safety agency standards require that the power receptacle be located within 2.8 meters
(9.2 feet.) of the tape library. The power receptacle must also be easily accessible. In sites
where the power cable is directly wired to a power source, your facility must have a readily
accessible disconnect device incorporated in the fixed wiring.
