Caution Ensure that the DC return remains isolated from the system frame and the chassis (DC-I).
Note You can use the grounding lug to attach a wrist strap for ESD protection during servicing.
Warning
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC
circuits. To ensure that all power is removed, locate the circuit breakers or fuses on the DC power
lines that service the DC circuits. Turn OFF the DC power line circuit breakers and remove the DC
power line fuses.

Removing the DC-Input Power Supply

To remove a DC-input power supply, follow these steps:
Step 1 Set the power switch/circuit breaker to the off (0) position on the circuit that feeds the power supply that
you are removing.
As an added precaution, place the appropriate safety flag and lockout devices at the source power circuit
breaker, or place a piece of adhesive tape over the circuit breaker handle to prevent accidental power
restoration while you are working on the circuit.
Step 2 Remove the clear plastic terminal block cover from the power supply terminal block.
