Replacing an MX2010 Three-Phase Wye AC Power Cord
The MX2010 router has either one redundant PDM or two redundant PDMs. An AC power supply cord on a redundant PDM is hot-insertable and hot-removable. When a redundant PDM is powered down, the other PDM automatically assumes the entire electrical load for the router. If you have only one PDM, you must power off the system before removing the AC power supply cord.
Removing an MX2000 Three-Phase Wye AC Power Cord
To remove a three-phase wye AC power cord:
- Switch off the customer-site circuit breakers to the PDM being removed. Make sure that the voltage across the AC power source cord is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cord might become active during the installation 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 PSM faceplate to the off
(
O
) position.Note After powering off a PSM, 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 Cord - 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, loosen the four screws on the cover of the metal wiring compartment that protects the AC terminal block.
- Remove the cover of the metal AC wiring compartment.
- Disconnect the wires from the AC terminal block on the
three-phase wye AC PDM (see Figure 2). Loosen each of
the input terminals or grounding point screws, 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.
To remove wires from the terminal block that serves six PSMs:
Remove the wire labeled

from the input terminal labeledC1
.Remove the wire labeled
L2
from the input terminal labeledB1
.Remove the wire labeled

from the input terminal labeledA1
.Remove the grounding wire from the grounding point labeled
GND
.

Note The three-phase wye AC PDM terminal blocks will be flipped depending on which slot the PDM gets plugged into.
- Loosen the plastic cable tie fastening the AC power cord to the PDM.
- 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.
- Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC PDM.

To install a three-phase wye AC power cord:
- Switch off the customer-site circuit breakers to the PDM being removed. Make sure that the voltage across the AC power source cord is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cord might become active during the installation 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.

) position.Note After powering off a PSM, wait at least 60 seconds before turning it back on.
- Using a number 2 Phillips (+) screwdriver, loosen the four screws on the cover of the metal wiring compartment that protects the AC terminal block.
- Remove the cover of the metal AC wiring compartment.
- Unscrew the retaining nut from the AC power cord.
- Place the retaining nut inside the metal wiring compartment.
- Insert 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 wires to the AC terminal block on the three-phase
delta AC PDM (see Figure 3).
Loosen each of the input terminal or grounding point screws, insert
the wire into the grounding point or input terminal, and tighten the
screw (see Table 1 for approved
AC wire gauge).

Note The color of each AC power wire might vary. The MX2010 chassis is not sensitive to phase rotation sequence—either CW or CCW will operate correctly.

Warning To protect power supplies from input voltage that might be caused by mis-wired PDMs, before reinstalling the metal cover to the wiring compartment, apply AC voltage to the PDM (with disengaged PSM) to make sure that two LEDs on the PDM are lit green and that the AC voltage between AC terminal blocks A1-N1, B1-N1, C1-N1, A2-N2, B2-N2, and C2-N2 for three-phase wye PDM is not more than 264 VAC when measured with a digital voltage meter (DVM). Then turn off the AC breaker, de-energizing the PDM, and install the metal cover and engage all AC PSMs.
Note Three-phase wye AC wire assembly kits can be purchased from Juniper Networks.
Table 1: Supported Three-Phase Wye AC Wire Gauge
Wire Gauge Description 5 x 10-AWG or equivalent
5 conductor wires, each wire is 10-AWG
Note We recommend that you use the proper gauge wire in order for the cable clamps to hold the AC cables. Using smaller gauge wiring will result in the cable clamps not tightening properly.
Warning Power connections must be performed by a licensed electrician only.
- Verify that the power cord wire connections are correct.
- Reinstall the metal PDM wiring cover, and using a number 2 Phillips (+) screwdriver, tighten the four captive screws on the metal AC wiring compartment.
- Verify that the AC power cord does not touch or block 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 ground point. See the instructions for your site.
- Connect the AC power cord plug to the power source.
- Switch on the customer-site circuit breakers to provide voltage to the AC power cord.
- 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 the LED on the PDM faceplate is lit steadily, indicating that the AC terminal block is receiving power.
- Switch the power switch on the PSM to the on (
|
) position to provide power to the router components.Note After a PDM is powered on, it can take up to 60 seconds for status indicators—such as the LEDs on the PDM, the command output displays, and messages on the LED display on the craft interface—to indicate that the PDM is functioning normally. Ignore error indicators that appear during the first 60 seconds.
