Removing a T640 Three-Phase Wye AC Power Supply
To remove a three-phase wye AC power supply:
- Switch off the customer site circuit breakers to the power
supply being removed. Make sure that the voltage across the AC power
source cord is 0 V and that there is no chance that the power cord
might become active during the removal process.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points
on the chassis.
- Switch the power switch on the power supply faceplate
to the standby position.
 | Note:
After powering off a power supply, wait at least 60 seconds
before turning it back on. |
- Remove the ESD grounding strap from the ESD point on the
chassis, and attach it to an approved site ESD grounding point. See
the instructions for your site.
- Disconnect the AC power cord (see Figure 1) from the power source.
Figure 1: Three-Phase Wye AC
Power Supply
- Remove the ESD grounding strap from the approved site
ESD grounding point. See the instructions for your site. Reconnect
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
- Using a number 2 Phillips (+) screwdriver, unscrew the
two screws on the metal cover protecting the AC terminal block.
Disconnect the wires from the AC terminal block and grounding
point on the three-phase wye AC power supply (Figure 2), Loosen each screw,
and remove each wire from the grounding point or input terminal.
 | Note:
The terminal connections have either slotted screws or
hex screws. Use a 1/4-in. slotted screwdriver for the slotted screws.
Use a 5/32-in (4-mm) Allen wrench for the 5/16-in hex screws. |
- Remove the wire labeled N from the N input terminal
- Remove the wire labeled L3 from the L3 input terminal.
- Remove the wire labeled L2 from the L2 input terminal.
- Remove the wire labeled L1 from the L1 input terminal.
- Remove the wire labeled GND from the grounding
point labeled GND.
Figure 2: Disconnecting the
AC Power Cord from a Three-Phase Wye AC Power Supply
- Loosen the plastic cable tie fastening the AC power cord
to the power supply.
- Loosen and remove the retaining nut from the AC power
cord.
- Pull the AC power cord out of the metal wiring compartment.
- Carefully move the AC power cable out of the way.
- Loosen the captive screws on the lower corners of the
power supply faceplate completely.
- Twist the ejector handles on the upper corners of the
faceplate counterclockwise to unseat the power supply.
- Grasp the handle on the power supply faceplate and pull
firmly. Slide it halfway out of the chassis (see Figure 3).
 | Caution:
Each three-phase wye AC power supply weighs approximately 31.0 lb (14.06 kg).
Be prepared to support the full weight of the power supply as you
remove it from the router. |
- Place one hand underneath the power supply to support
it and slide it completely out of the chassis.

Installing a T640 Three-Phase Wye AC Power Supply
Each three-phase wye AC power supply weighs approximately 31.0 lb (14.06 kg).
To install a three-phase wye AC power supply:
- Make sure that the voltage across the AC power cord leads
is 0 V and that there is no chance that the power cord might become
active during installation.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points
on the chassis.
- Switch the power switch on the power supply faceplate
to the standby position.
- Using both hands, slide the power supply into the chassis
until you feel resistance (see Figure 5).
- Twist the ejector handles at the upper corners of the
power supply faceplate clockwise until they stop.
- Tighten the captive screws at the lower corners of the
power supply faceplate to secure the power supply in the chassis.
- Using a slotted screwdriver, loosen the two screws securing
the door of the metal wiring compartment.
- Open the door of the metal wiring compartment.
- Place the retaining screw into the metal wiring compartment.
- Unscrew the retaining nut from the AC power cord.
- Place the retaining nut inside the metal wiring compartment.
- Put the wires of the AC power cord through the hole of
the metal wiring compartment.
- Screw the retaining nut onto the AC power cord to secure
it to the metal wiring compartment.
Connect the AC power cord wires to ground and the AC
terminal block on the three-phase wye AC power supply (Figure 4).
Loosen each of the input terminals or grounding point screws, insert
each wire into the grounding point or input terminal, and tighten
the screw.
 | Note:
The terminal connections have either slotted screws or
hex screws. Use a 1/4-in. slotted screwdriver for the slotted screws.
Use a 5/32-in (4-mm) Allen wrench for the 5/16-in hex screws. |
- Insert the wire labeled GND into the grounding
point labeled GND.
- Insert the wire L1 into the L1 input
terminal.
- Insert the wire labeled L2 into the L2 input terminal.
- Insert the wire labeled L3 into the L3 input terminal.
- Insert the wire labeled N into the N input terminal
Figure 4: Connecting Power to the Three–Phase Wye AC Power Supply
- Verify that the power cord wire connections are correct.
- Using a number 2 Phillips (+) screwdriver, tighten the
two captive screws on the metal AC wiring compartment.
- Place the AC power cord into the plastic tie located on
the right side of the power supply, and fasten the plastic tie.
- Verify that the AC power cord is not touching or blocking
access to router components, and that it does not drape where
people could trip on it.
- Remove the ESD grounding strap from the ESD points on
the chassis. Connect the strap to an approved site ESD grounding point.
See the instructions for your site.
- Connect the AC power cord to the AC power source.
- Switch on the customer site circuit breakers to provide
voltage to the AC power source cables.
- Remove the ESD grounding strap from the approved site
ESD grounding point. See the instructions for your site. Reconnect
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
- Verify that the AC OK LED on the power supply
faceplate is lit steadily, indicating that the AC terminal block is
receiving power.
- Switch the power switch on the power supply to the ON position (|).
- Verify that the DC OK LED on the power supply
faceplate is lit steadily, indicating that the power supply is correctly
installed and is functioning properly. The DC OK LED blinks
momentarily, then lights steadily.
 | Note:
After a power supply is powered on, it can take up to
60 seconds for status indicators—such as the LEDs on the power
supply, the command output displays, and messages on the LED display
on the craft interface—to indicate that the power supply is
functioning normally. Ignore error indicators that appear during the
first 60 seconds. |
