The following topics describe the redundant ac-power switch installation tasks in
the order that they must be performed:
1.
Attach the mounting plates to the redundant ac-power switch.
2.
Label the cables.
3.
Connect the power input cables to the redundant ac-power switch.
4.
Install the redundant ac-power switch in the rack.
5.
Connect the redundant ac-power switch to the site power.
6.
Test the redundant ac-power switch to ensure that it automatically switches
power supplies when the main power source fails or is restored.
Attaching the mounting plates to the redundant ac-power
switch
Attach the mounting plates to the redundant ac-power switch before you label the
cables.
Perform the following steps to attach the mounting plates to the redundant
ac-power switch:
Attach each of the two mounting plates to the redundant ac-power switch using
three M3 Torx T8 head screws. Position the mounting face on the side of the
redundant ac-power switch containing the output power sockets. See Figure 23.
Labeling the cables
You must label each end of the two redundant ac-power switch input-power cables
before you connect the input-power cables to the redundant ac-power switch.
