technician.
Statement 29:
xii IBM System Storage DS3950 EXP395 Storage Expansion Enclosure: Installation, User’s, and Maintenance Guide

CAUTION:
This equipment is designed to permit the connection of the earthed conductor of
the dc supply circuit to the earthing conductor at the equipment.
This equipment is designed to permit the connection of the earthed conductor of
the dc supply circuit to the earthing conductor at the equipment. If this
connection is made, all of the following conditions must be met:
vThis equipment shall be connected directly to the dc supply system earthing
electrode conductor or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or
bus to which the dc supply system earthing electrode conductor is connected.
vThis equipment shall be located in the same immediate area (such as, adjacent
cabinets) as any other equipment that has a connection between the earthed
conductor of the same dc supply circuit and the earthing conductor, and also
the point of earthing of the dc system. The dc system shall not be earthed
elsewhere.
vThe dc supply source shall be located within the same premises as this
equipment.
vSwitching or disconnecting devices shall not be in the earthed circuit
conductor between the dc source and the point of connection of the earthing
electrode conductor.
Statement 30:
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or energy hazards:
vThis equipment must be installed by trained service personnel in a
restricted-access location, as defined by the NEC and IEC 60950-1, First
Edition, The Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment.
vConnect the equipment to a reliably grounded safety extra low voltage (SELV)
source. An SELV source is a secondary circuit that is designed so that normal
and single fault conditions do not cause the voltages to exceed a safe level (60
V direct current).
vThe branch circuit overcurrent protection must be rated 20 A.
vUse 12 American Wire Gauge (AWG) or 2.5 mm2 copper conductor only, not
exceeding 4.5 meters in length.
vIncorporate a readily available approved and rated disconnect device in the
field wiring.
CAUTION:
This unit has more than one power source. To remove all power from the unit,
all dc MAINS must be disconnected.
