Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection
Connecting the Cisco ASR 1002 chassis to earth ground is required for all DC powered installations and
any AC powered installation where compliance with Telcordia grounding requirements is necessary.
Caution The dual-lug chassis ground stud must be installed, all cards or filler plates must be fully inserted and
screwed in and earthed to prevent a potential hazard in a telecom line.
Have the recommended tools and supplies available before you begin this procedure.
Warning
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.

Caution The grounding wire is always the first to be installed or connected and the last to be removed or
disconnected.
The following tools, equipment, and supplies necessary to connect the system ground to the chassis:
• Phillips screwdriver
• Dual-lug chassis ground component (two) and respective screws (four) (shipped with the accessory
kit)
