position on the device.
Guidelines
•
When you print, write, or affix labels, keep the labels clean.
•
Do not use ink-jet printers and ink pens.
•
Affix labels with good order in alignment.
•
Avoid cable bents or other positions that might affect cable installation when you stick a label or
bundle a cable tie with a power cord identification plate.
•
Bundle cable ties at the same positions of power cords, with identification plates on the same
side.
•
The positions of "up", "down", "right" or "left" are all based on the viewpoint of the engineering
person who is working on the label.
