General Safety Precautions

Danger:

To prevent electrical shock, never install panel in a wet location or during a lightning

storm. When installing or modifying telephone lines, disconnect lines at the network interface
before working with uninsulated lines or terminals.

Caution:

When connecting the equipment to the power sources, check the equipment nameplate

rating to avoid overloading circuits which may cause damage to over-current protection devices
and supply wiring

.

Caution:

If the panel is installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the operating temperature

of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature. Be sure to install the
panel in an environment that is compatible with the maximum rated ambient temperature. See
Specifications.

Caution:

Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that air flow to the equipment is

not compromised.

Caution:

When mounting equipment in the rack make sure mechanical loading is even to avoid

a hazardous condition, such as loading heavy equipment in the rack unevenly. The rack should
safely support the combined weight of all equipment it supports.

Caution:

Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular

attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

Caution:

This equipment is to be installed only in Restricted Access Areas (dedicated

equipment rooms, equipment closets, etc.) in accordance with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-
18 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
