Grounding a single bay
Equipment correctly installed within the cabinet is grounded through the AC power cables and connectors. In general, supplemental
grounding is not required for a single bay.
If your site requires external grounding (for example, to a common grounding network beneath the site floor), you can use the grounding
lugs provided on each of the cabinet’s bottom supports.
