AC Power Input Connections
There are three configurations of the AC-powered BPX switch cabinet:
•
Single power supply, single AC power feed
•
Dual power supplies, single AC power feed
•
Dual power supplies, dual AC power feed
An 8
foot (3 meter) power cord is supplied with each AC Power Supply Assembly.
To make AC power connections to the BPX switch:
Step 1
Plug the power cords into the applicable IEC connectors as shown in Figure 11-9 and tighten the cord
retainers. A separate power cord connects to each of one or two IEC connectors depending on the
version of power supply shelf provided.
Step 2
Plug the BPX switch cord into a 220 to 240 VAC single-phase wall outlet capable of supplying 20 A.
The building circuit should be protected with a 20 A circuit breaker.
Note
The BPX switch circuit breaker is 20 A to provide improved system availability
for installations with a single line cord and (N+1) power supplies.
Step 3
For the dual power feed version, plug each power cord into receptacles on separate building circuits to
provide protection against a power feed failure. Each building circuit should be protected with a 20A
circuit breaker.
