components. To plan for safe and adequate power to the system, follow these
guidelines:
1.
Check the documentation for all hardware components at the chosen location to
determine their power requirements. Then make sure that the available power
supply for that location is sufficient for the planned components.
2.
If you need assistance determining the power needs of the components at the
chosen location, consult an electrical expert who is familiar with your facility.
3.
If there are devices at the chosen location that use large amounts of power, use
surge protectors or power conditions as part of the installation.
4.
When planning for electrical power, make sure you have more power than the total
power requirements specified for all components. Also make certain that the power
load is distributed evenly among circuits to that location. Consult an electrician or
other expert if you need assistance with planning for the power needs of your
components.
5.
Make sure that the power outlets for all hardware components are grounded
according to local and national standards. Consult an electrician if you need
assistance with grounding.
