place objects on top of rack-mounted devices.

the same rack cabinet. Do not plug a power cord from a device installed in
one rack cabinet into a power device installed in a different rack cabinet.

voltage on the metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the
system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is
correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
