• Do not use common power outlet strips for this equipment.
• Provide a separate electrical circuit for the system.
For more information on the hot-plug power supply and calculators to determine power consumption in various system
configurations, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (

Electrical grounding requirements
The system must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety. In the United States, you must install the equipment
in accordance with NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code), Article 250, as well as any local and regional building
codes. In Canada, you must install the equipment in accordance with Canadian Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian
Electrical Code. In all other regions, you must install the equipment in accordance with any regional or national electrical wiring
codes, such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Code 364, parts 1 through 7. Furthermore, you must be
sure that all power distribution devices used in the installation, such as branch wiring and receptacles, are listed or certified
grounding-type devices.
Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple systems connected to the same power source, Hewlett
Packard Enterprise recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently wired to the branch circuit of the building or
includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or plugs complying with IEC
60309 are considered suitable for this purpose. Using common power outlet strips for the system is not recommended.
System warnings and cautions
WARNING: This system is heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the product is not fastened
to the rails. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that a minimum of two people are required for all rack system
installations. A third person may be required to help align the system if the system is installed higher than chest
level.
• Use caution when installing the system in or removing the system from the rack; it is unstable when not fastened to
the rails.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives, power supplies, and internal system
components to cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment, remove power from the
system by removing the power cord. The front panel Power On/Standby button does not shut off system power.
Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
