Connecting Power to an AC-Powered SRX5800 Services Gateway
 |
Caution: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies within the same services gateway. Damage to the services gateway might occur. |
You connect AC power to the device by attaching power cords from the AC power sources to the AC appliance inlets located on the power supplies. The power cords are not provided with the services gateway.
To connect the AC power cords to the services gateway (see Figure 1):
- Locate or obtain the power cords you will use with the services gateway. The power cords must have a plug appropriate for your geographical location.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
- Move the AC input switch, which is to the right of the appliance inlet on the chassis, to the off (O) position.
- Connect the power cord into the appliance inlet located in the chassis directly above the AC power supply.
- Insert the power cord plug into an external AC
power source receptacle.
Note: Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power feed and a dedicated customer site circuit breaker. We recommend that you use a 15 A (250 VAC) minimum, or as required by local code.
- Dress the power cord appropriately. Verify that the power cord does not block the air exhaust and access to services gateway components, or drape where people could trip on it.
- Repeat Step Step 3 through Step Step 6 for the remaining power supplies.
