Connecting the Power 27
2. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and
connect the strip to the ESD point on the chassis.
3. Use a grounding cable to connect the device to earth ground, and do the
following:
a. Verify that a licensed electrician has attached an appropriate
grounding-cable lug to the grounding cable.
b. Connect one end of the grounding cable to a proper earth ground, such as
the rack in which the device is installed.
c. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the two-hole grounding lug
at the rear of an SSG 500M Series device.

4. For each power supply unit (PSU), do the following:
a. Insert the appliance-coupler end of a power cord into the appliance inlet on
the power-supply faceplate.
b. Insert the plug into an AC power-source receptacle.
5. Verify that the power cord does not block access to device components or
drape where people can trip on it.
DC Power
Each DC PSU has a single DC input (–48 VDC and return) that requires a dedicated
15 A (–48 VDC) circuit breaker.

CAUTION: If your device includes an optional redundant DC PSU, connect each of
the two power supplies to different input-power sources. Failure to do so makes
the device susceptible to total power failure if one of the power supplies fails.
