Juniper PTX1000 - Page 83

CAUTION: Before you connect power to the PTX1000, a licensed electrician must
attach a cable lug to the grounding and power cables that you supply. A cable with
an incorrectly attached lug can damage the router (for example, by causing a short
circuit).
NOTE: To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure
proper operation, you must connect the chassis to earth ground before you connect it to
power. For installations that require a separate grounding conductor to the chassis, use the
protective earthing terminal on the PTX1000 chassis to connect to the earth ground (see
“Connecting the PTX1000 to Ground” on page 81).
NOTE: An AC-powered PTX1000 gains additional grounding when you plug the router’s power
supply into a grounded AC power outlet by using an AC power cord appropriate for your
geographical location. See “PTX1000 AC Power Cord Specifications” on page 45.
•
Install the power supply in the chassis following the instructions in “Installing a Power Supply in a
PTX1000” on page 103.
•
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
ESD grounding strap
•
Power cord or cords appropriate for your geographical location available to connect AC power to the
PTX1000 (see “PTX1000 AC Power Cord Specifications” on page 45).
CAUTION: Do not mix AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis.
NOTE: Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated power source outlet.
To connect AC power to a PTX1000:
1. To prevent damage to the equipment caused by static discharge, attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD)
grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to an approved site ESD grounding point.
2. Ensure that the power supplies are fully inserted in the chassis and the latches are secure.
