CAUTION: Before you connect power to the switch, a licensed electrician must attach
acablelugtothegroundingandpowercablesthatyousupply.Acablewithanincorrectly
attached lug can damage the switch (for example, by causing a short circuit).
CAUTION: Mixingdifferenttypesofpowersuppliesinthesamechassisisnotasupported

NOTE: A 2000 W DC power supply requires a dedicated 60 A circuit breaker for each
input DC feed.
A 3000 W DC power supply requires a dedicated 100 A circuit breaker for each input
DC feed.
NOTE: Each power supply input feed must be connected to a dedicated DC power
source outlet.
Before you begin connecting DC power to an EX8200 switch:
•
Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent ESD damage (see
“Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage on EX Series Switches” on page 292).
•
Ensure that you have connected the switch chassis to earth ground.

Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to connect DC power to an
EX8200 switch:
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
•
DC power source cables (not provided) with the cable lugs (provided) attached.
The provided cable lugs in an EX8208 switch are sized for 6 AWG (13.3 mm
2
) power
source cables. The DC power source cables that you provide must be 6 AWG (13.3
mm
