C. Connect Power Cables for Grounding
A PS Series array includes two power supply/cooling modules. It is recommended
that you connect both power supplies to different sources of power, preferably on
separate circuits for increased availability.
For a highly-available power configuration, connect one power supply to an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system, and connect the other power supply
to a different source of power. See the table PS Series Storage Array Requirements
on page 6 for information about voltage requirements.
Notes: Do not turn on power to the array. At this time, the power cables are only
for grounding purposes.
If your PS Series array was shipped with power cables, use these cables to
meet safety requirements.
To connect power cables to an array, refer to the figure shown next. Be sure to use
the cable strain relief when securing the power cable in the array.
