Removing a DC PEM
The left chassis PEM slot is labelled “0” and the right chassis PEM slot is labelled “1”. For full 
redundancy, each PEM must be attached to a dedicated circuit breaker. For example, PEM “0” connects 
to circuit breaker “0” and PEM “1” connects to circuit breaker “1”.
  WARNING: Prevent exposure and contact with hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to operate this system 
with the safety cover removed.
