Configuration Factors CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment, verify that all AC voltage selector switches are set correctly to match your local AC line voltage (115V or 230V). If the AC voltage selector switch is not properly set, your components will be damaged when power is applied. The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional electrical regulations governing the installation of Information Technology Equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered by the National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA-70, 1993) and the code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment (NFPA-75, 1992). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product's rating label or user documentation supplied with that option. Grounding Requirements For proper operation and safety, all powered rack-mountable components are required to be properly grounded in accordance with NFPA 70-1993, Article 250. All power distribution devices, branch wiring, and receptacles must be listed as grounding-type devices. When using power strips for electrical distribution, make sure that ground integrity is maintained for each connection made. Plug each component into a reliably grounded outlet. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable the power cord grounding feature. This equipment is designed to be connected to a grounded (earthed) power outlet that is easily accessible and located as close as possible to the equipment. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. 2-6 HP 10842 Rack Reference Guide
