Power Failure
As a precaution, the switch should be unplugged in case of power failure. When power is resumed, plug the
switch back in.
Grounding the Switch
This section describes how to connect the EasySmart Switch to ground. You must complete this procedure
before powering your switch.
Required Tools and Equipment
Ground screws (included in the accessory kit): One M4 x 6 mm (metric) pan-head screw
Ground cable (not included in the accessory kit): The grounding cable should be sized according to
local and national installation requirements. Depending on the power supply and system, a 12 to 6
AWG copper conductor is required for U.S installation. Commercially available 6 AWG wire is
recommended. The length of the cable depends on the proximity of the switch to proper grounding
facilities.
A screwdriver (not included in the accessory kit)
The following steps let you connect the switch to a protective ground:
Step 1: Verify if the system power is off.
Step 2: Use the ground cable to place the #8 terminal lug ring on top of the ground-screw opening, as seen
in the figure below.
Step 3: Insert the ground screw into the ground-screw opening.
Step 4: Using a screwdriver, tighten the ground screw to secure the ground cable to the switch.
Step 5: Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end of the grounding cable to an appropriate grounding stud
or bolt on rack where the switch is installed.
Step 6: Verify if the connections at the ground connector on the switch and the rack are securely attached.
