Extreme Networks 17001 manual Required Tools and Materials, Preparing the Cables

CAUTION

Make sure that the Summit X480 DC PSU circuit is not overloaded. Use proper over-current protection, such as a circuit-breaker, to prevent over-current conditions. Do not use a breaker rated for higher than 30 Amps.

Required Tools and Materials

You need the following tools and materials to install or remove a Summit X480 DC PSU:

●Three spade terminals (Panduit part number PN14-6FN or equivalent) for connecting the ground and input power cables (provided)

●#14 AWG stranded copper cable for grounding the PSU and connecting the PSU to the DC power source

DC power and grounding cables are not included with the Summit X480 DC PSU. You must provide the #14 AWG stranded copper cable. Recommended insulation colors are:

■Red for the –48V connection (–)

■Black for the –48V RTN connection (+)

■Green or green with yellow stripe for the ground connection

●Connection hardware appropriate to the installation site:

■Hardware for connecting the power wires to the DC source

■Hardware for connecting the ground wire to the site grounding point

●Stripping tool

●Crimping tool for attaching the lugs to the wires

●#1 Phillips screwdriver

●Torque screwdriver and wrench or torque driver with attachments for tightening screws and nuts

●ESD-preventive wrist strap

●Thermal protective gloves (required for removal of a PSU)

Spade-type connection lugs for power and ground are shipped with the power supply.

Preparing the Cables

Three spade-type terminals are provided with the PSU. You need a crimping tool to attach the terminals to the power and ground cables.

To prepare the cables:

1On each wire, strip 0.25 inch of insulation from one end.

2Insert the stripped wire end all the way into the barrel of the terminal (Figure 110) and crimp the terminal securely to the wire.
