Install your equipment in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is one where

service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key, or other means of

security. The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.

Ensure that the area where you install your switch meets the following safety requirements:

• Near an adequate power source. Connect the switch to the appropriate branch circuit

protection according to your local electrical codes.
