-To avoid electric shock the power cord protective grounding conductor must be connected through to ground.

-Always pull on the plug, not the cable, when disconnecting the power cord from the socket.

Do not connect or disconnect the console server during an electrical storm. We recommend that you use a surge suppressor or UPS to protect the equipment from transients.
