3.5.7 Connecting a Power Cable
The following describes how to connect AC and DC power cables. Connect AC or DC power
cables based on the PSU type.
Before connecting power cables, ensure that the server and its internal components have been
installed, and the PGND cable is connected to the server (for the RH2288 V3, which does not
provide ground terminals, connect the PGND cable to the cabinet where the server is located).
Use dedicated power cables to ensure equipment and personal safety. Power cables must be
securely connected. Power cables are used only for dedicated servers. Do not use them for
other devices.
