3–Installation Installing a Switch

The switch comes with two NEMA 5-15, non-locking, power cords (SKU: CPK-9000-US). This power cord is approved for North America (USA, Canada, Puerto Rico), Mexico, Central America, South America, Korea, Taiwan, Phillippines, and Thailand. Refer to Table A-10for information about power cords for other regions/countries.

To power up the switch, do the following:

1.Attach a power cord restraint bail to each Power Supply blade as show in Figure 3-5.

2.Connect the power cords firmly to the Power Supply blade AC power receptacles.

3.Fasten the restraint bail on each plug.

4.Connect each power cord to a 3-wire, grounded, AC outlet that delivers power in accordance with the power requirements in Appendix A.

NOTE:

To provide redundancy in the event of an AC power circuit failure, connect the Power Supply blades to separate AC circuits.

5.Place the On/Off switches on both Power Supply blades in the On position. The power-up sequence will take a few minutes. The switch is operational when both CPU Heartbeat LEDs are flashing once per second.
