VX systems for Israel must use power cords certified by SII (The Standards Institution of Israel) provided locally by NET VX distributors.
The VX900C and VX1800 must be grounded to the building ground network.
For ground wire specifics, see the tables below for the United States and Canada, and for Europe.
Only qualified service personnel should perform the electrical procedures for installation.
When installing the chassis, connect the earth ground wires from the VX chassis to the facility ground bus.
You must provide connections between the earth ground connection points on the chassis and the facility ground bus. To avoid a potential electrical hazard, be sure to confirm that the main -48 VDC feeds are physically disconnected from power before installing the wires.
The colors of the cables shown in illustrations in this section represents standards used North America: Red for -48 V and Black for -48 V RTN.
European wire standards may differ for -48 V and -48 V RTN, such as Blue for -48 V and Red or Black for-48 V RTN.
Use the grommeted holes on the right and left flanges of the rack, as the attachment points for the safety ground wiring described in the following procedure.
