Chapter 4 Installing the Cisco SCE8000 Chassis
Connecting the System Ground
Two threaded M4 holes are provided on the chassis frame to attach the ground cable.
You must complete this procedure before connecting system power or turning on the Cisco SCE8000
chassis.
Required Tools and Equipment
To connect the system ground, you need the following tools and materials:
• One grounding lug.
• Two M4 (metric) hex-head screws with locking washers.
Note The grounding lug and M4 hex-head screws with locking washers are provided in kit 69-0815-01.
• One grounding wire.
The grounding wire must be sized according to local and national installation requirements.
Depending on the power supply and system, a 12 AWG conductor or larger size wire is required for
U.S. installations.
• Number 2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
• Crimping tool (must be large enough to accommodate the girth of the grounding lug when crimping
the grounding cable into the lug).
• Wire-stripping tool.
Step 1 Use a wire-stripping tool to remove approximately 0.75 inch (19 mm) of the covering from the end of
the grounding wire.
Step 2 Insert the stripped end of the grounding wire into the open end of the grounding lug.
Step 3 Use the manufacturer recommended crimping tool to secure the grounding wire in place in the grounding
lug.
Step 4 Locate and remove the adhesive label from the system grounding pad on the chassis.
