    DANGER Do not remove covers from the enclosure or any of the modules. There is a danger of electric shock inside. Do not attempt to disassemble the rear subchassis from the enclosure. Return any damaged components to your supplier for repair. DANGER: Hazardous voltage, current, or energy levels are present inside any component that has this label attached.
  • Page 23: Electrostatic Discharge (Esd) Precautions

    The electrical distribution system must provide a reliable ground for each enclosure, and for the rack. Each PSU in each enclosure has a ground leakage current of 1.6 mA. The design of the electrical distribution system must consider the total ground leakage current from all the PSUs in all the enclosures.
