If you remove a power supply from a system that are connected and powered on, the system can run only for
a maximum of five minutes before shutting down. However, because the fans and power elements are independent
within the power supply, the replacement power supply does not have to be energized within five minutes. The
only requirement is that the power supply be installed in the chassis in order to energize the fans and maintain
proper system cooling.
Caution
Step 6 Grasping the power supply handles, pull the power supply from the chassis.
Step 7 Replace the –48 VDC power supply within five minutes.
What to do next
This completes the procedure of removing a –48 VDC power supply from the Cisco ASR 1002 Router.
Replacing the –48 VDC Power Supply in Cisco ASR 1002 Router
The –48 VDC power supply input connector is a Euro-style terminal block. Features are provide for strain
relieving the input wires from the terminal block on the front panel. The ground wire must contain a loop
when secured to prevent any strain on the wires. The connection order is negative (–), positive (+), and GND.
The recommended branch circuit breaker for the Cisco ASR 1002 Router –48 VDC power supply is 30 A.
Use an AWG #10 gauge wire on the 30 A circuit.
This section describes how to connect the –48 VDC power supply in the Cisco ASR 1002 Router.
The color coding of the –48 VDC input power supply leads depends on the color coding of the –48 VDC
power source at your site. Typically, green or green/yellow is used for ground. Make certain the lead color
coding you choose for the –48 VDC input power supply matches lead color coding used at the –48 VDC
power source.
Note
When you install the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Statement

Warning
SUMMARY STEPS
1. At the rear of the router, check that the power Standby switch is in the Standby position.
2. Ensure that the positive and negative leads are disconnected from the site power source and the source
circuit breaker is turned off.
3. Using a wire stripper, strip approximately 0.55 inch (14 mm) from the negative, positive, and ground
leads.
4. Insert the stripped end of the ground lead all the way into the ground lead receptacle on the –48 VDC
input power supply, and tighten the receptacle screw using a 3.5 mm flat-blade screwdriver (see the
following figure).
5. Insert the stripped end of the positive lead all the way into the positive lead receptacle and tighten the
receptacle screw using the same 3.5mm flat-blade screwdriver. Repeat this step for the negative lead.
6. After tightening the receptacle screw for the ground, and leaving the extra service loop in the ground lead,
use a cable tie to secure the three leads to the power supply faceplate tie-wrap tab.
