CAUTION
For the NEBS compliant installation of a NetIron CES 2000 or NetIron CER 2000 Series devices
with AC and DC system use a ground wire of at least #6 American Wire Gauge (AWG). The ground
wire should have an agency-approved crimped connector (provided with the chassis) attached to
one end, with the other end grounded to either a common bonding network or an isolated
bonding network. The connector must be crimped with the proper tool, allowing it to be
connected to both ground screws on the enclosure. Before crimping the ground wire into the
provided ground lug, insure the bare copper wire has been cleaned and antioxidant is applied to
the bare wire.
CAUTION
To insure adequate bonding when attaching the provided Panduit LCD6-10AF two-hole ground
lug, a minimum of 20 PSI of torque is required to be applied to the mounting hardware used to
attach the ground lug. Use a star washer to ensure an NEBS compliant connection.

DANGER
Before beginning the installation, refer to the precautions in “Power precautions” on page 21.
Use the following procedures for DC power supplies in NetIron CES and CER 2000 Series devices.
Follow the steps given below to install an DC power supply.
