While it is possible for one person to install an empty NCS 2015 shelf, if the NCS 2015 shelf is fully loaded,
then two people should install it. For ease of lifting, it is recommended that the shelf be empty. For information
on the NCS 2015 shelf weight, see the NCS 2015 Shelf Specifications, on page 473.
Mounting Multiple Shelves
Most standard 600 x 300 x 2200 mm racks can hold three NCS 2015 shelves, and a fuse and alarm panel. In
an ETSI rack, the brackets are mounted only in the middle position.
The NCS 2015 shelves can be mounted above each other without any space between the shelves.
