protection, such as a circuit breaker, to prevent overcurrent conditions.
Installing an RPS-150XT Redundant Power Supply
You can install the RPS-150XT power supply on a flat surface or in a 19-inch rack in the three-slot
modular shelf (STK-RPS-1005CH3), which is available for purchase separately.

Observe all ESD precautions when handling sensitive electronic equipment.
Only qualified personnel should install redundant power supply (RPS) units.
Unpacking the RPS-150XT
To prevent electrostatic damage, attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to your wrist before
handling the RPS-150XT.
Unpack the power supply as follows:
1. Remove the packing material protecting the power supply.
