RESTRICTED ACCESS LOCATIONS can be accessed only through the use of a tool or lock and
key or other means of security, and are controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
SERVICE PERSONNEL are defined as persons having appropriate technical training and
experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task and
of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons.
8.3.9 Power
Each chassis has a maximum of six AC power supply connections. A minimum of 5 power
supplies and 3 separate branch circuits are required when input voltage range is 100-180 VAC.
A minimum of 5 power supplies and 2 branch circuits are required when input voltage range is
200-240 VAC. Each branch circuit over-current protection must be Listed 20 Amp for North
America or European Union (EU) Installation. A readily accessible disconnect device that is
suitably approved and rated should be incorporated in the facility wiring. All power connections
must be removed to completely de-energize the unit.
Before conducting non-operational work or maintenance on the FortiSwitch-1000, completely
remove all power from the unit. The circuit breakers feeding the chassis, when opened, will de-
energize circuitry beyond the breakers.
When performing work/maintenance on the FortiSwitch-1000 during operation, SERVICE
PERSONNEL should use caution as there are Hazardous Energy levels present within the
chassis.
8.3.10 Supply and Chassis Ground Wiring
Use only copper conductors for supply and ground wiring.
The power supplies are designed to accept UL/CSA rated power cords with IEC 60320 C13 plugs.
Specific conductor size and type should be in accordance with NEC/CEC requirements.
8.4 General Operational and Maintenance
Guidelines
The following guidelines are designed to help ensure the safety of the people working on or
around the FortiSwitch-1000 (such as technicians or installers) and are also designed to protect
the routing equipment.
Installation of the FortiSwitch-1000 should be performed only by a qualified technician.
Do not wear conductive items such as watches, bracelets, rings, or other jewelry when working
with the FortiSwitch-1000.
The installation area should be kept dust-free at all times.
Never attempt to lift an object that may be too heavy.
Keep tools and other equipment out of walkways where people could trip on them.
8.4.1 Electrical Safety
WARNING: Disconnect all power supplies before performing non-operational servicing.
The FortiSwitch-1000 is designed to be upgraded while the system is operational. Performing
upgrades on the FortiSwitch-1000 therefore entails working with live voltage. The following
