Version 1.10 Hardware Release Note
PRELIMINARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
Grounding the NS 7000/060 Expansion Cabinet
After you unpack the NS 7000/060 NetServer cabinet and place it in its final location, you must plug
the power cord into a 16-amp outlet to create a ground path for the antistatic wrist strap.
In the United States, Canada, and Mexico, the NS 7000/060 is shipped with an L6-20P plug.
International configurations (except for Canada and Mexico) are shipped without a plug. The
customer is responsible for providing a plug appropriate for the wall outlet.
Warning:
The wiring at your site must provide for ground fault protection to prevent
electrical shock.
To create a ground path
1. Locate the main power switch on the PDU inside the back door at the bottom of the expansion
cabinet. Set this switch to OFF (O) (see
).
Caution:
Use the main power switch on the PDU only. The switch at the top of each power
supply located at the front of the cabinet should always be turned to ON (—).

2. Locate the power cable, which is coiled on top of the panel covering the power supply.
3. Cut the red tie-wraps to release the power cable, and plug the appropriate end to the back of the
PDU. The plug on the PDU is located to the left of the main power switch.
4. Tighten the strain relief surrounding the plug at the PDU.
5. Make sure power to the system is off.
6. Plug the power cable to a separate 16-amp grounded outlet.
Caution:
Do not power on the expansion cabinet at this time. You connected the power
cable only to provide a ground path for the antistatic wrist strap. For instructions on
powering on the NetServer, refer to your hardware manual.
