Steps
To install a power module, follow these steps:

Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection
sockets on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.
Step 2
Make sure that the power switch is in the off position.
Step 3
Grasp the handle on the top of the module firmly, and lift it partway up.

Using two hands to support and guide the power module, slide it into the chassis power bay on the front
(PLIM) side of the chassis until the connector on the back of the module meets the connector on the
backplane of the PDU.
