Dress the grounding cable and verify that it does not touch or block access to
device components, and that it does not drape where people could trip on it.
Connect Power to an AC-Powered Ethernet Appliance
WARNING:
The device must be properly grounded before you connect the AC power
cords.
1.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and
connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information
about ESD, see the
IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S Hardware Guide
.
2.
Locate the power cord or cords you will use to connect the device to AC power.
See the
IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S Hardware Guide
for specifications.
3.
For each power supply:
a.
Insert the appliance coupler end of the power cord into the appliance inlet
on the power supply.
b.
Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle.
NOTE:
Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power feed and a
dedicated external circuit breaker. We recommend that you use a 15 A (250 VAC)
minimum, or as permitted by local code.
