Chapter 2 Setting Up and Configuring the Multi Services Platform

Mounting the Multi Services Platform in a Rack

Consider the connection of equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that possible overloading of circuits may have on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this issue.

Maintain a reliable ground. The rack itself should be grounded. Pay particular to power supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, power strips).
