Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series Appliance

Preparing Your Site for Installation

–Autoselects either 110-V or 220-V operation.

–All appliances include an electrical cord. (A label near the power cord indicates the correct voltage, frequency, current draw, and power dissipation for the appliance.)

Warning This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors). Statement 13

•Install proper grounding to your appliance and host equipment rack to avoid damage from lightning and power surges.

Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

•The AC-input power supply operates on input voltage and frequency within the ranges of 100 to 240 VRMS and 50/60 Hz without the need for operator adjustments.

DC Power Supply Safety Considerations

Follow these precautions and recommendations when planning power connections to your appliance:

•Check the power at your site before installation and periodically after installation to ensure that you are receiving clean power (free of spikes and noise). Install a power conditioner if necessary.

•The DC power supply includes the following features:

––48-VDC to –60-VDC operation

Warning This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors). Statement 13

•Install proper grounding to your appliance and host equipment rack to avoid damage from lightning and power surges.

Contact appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

Method of Procedure

As described previously, part of your preparation includes reviewing installation plans or MOPs. An example of a MOP (a preinstallation checklist of tasks and considerations that need to be addressed and agreed upon before proceeding with the installation) is as follows:

1.Assign personnel.

2.Determine protection requirements for personnel, equipment, and tools.

3.Evaluate potential hazards that may affect service.
