Safety
Safety Statements
Read and follow all safety instructions, warnings, and precautions in this manual and the manuals of all
equipment before installing, maintaining, or repairing the power system. Equipment manuals contain
additional safety statements, warnings, and precautions specific to the equipment.
• The H569-445 Secondary DC Power Distribution Bay is Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Listed per
Subject Letter 1801 (DC Power Distribution Centers for Telecommunications Equipment) for use
in the USA.
• Install only in restricted access areas (dedicated equipment rooms, equipment closets, or the like).
• Use this equipment in a controlled environment (an area where the humidity is maintained at levels
that cannot cause condensation on the equipment, the contaminating dust is controlled, and the
steady-state ambient temperature is within the range specified). Evaluated maximum ambient
temperature: 104°F (40°C).
• Do not install this equipment over combustible surfaces.
• Compression Connectors
• For installations in the U. S. or Canada, use Listed/Certified compression connectors to terminate
Listed/Certified field-wire conductors where required.
• For all installations, apply the appropriate connector to the correct size conductor as specified by
the connector manufacturer, using only the connector manufacturer’s recommended tooling or
tooling approved for that connector.
• If the proper connector for the country of installation is not provided, obtain appropriate
connectors and follow manufacturer’s and all local requirements for proper connections.
• The field wiring connections have been evaluated for connection of minimum 90°C conductors sized
per the U.S. National Electrical Code using 75°C ampacity tables.
• Torque electrical connections to the values specified on labels or in the product documentation.
• The short circuit current capability of the battery input to the distribution panel must not exceed
10,000 amperes.
• Use only fuses and circuit breakers specified in the product documentation to avoid possible in injury
to service personnel or equipment damage. They may not be provided with the equipment.
• Size fuses and circuit breakers as required by the National Electric Code (NEC) and/or local codes.
Refer to the equipment ratings to assure current does not exceed:
• Continuous Load (List 1) - 64% of protector rating
• Maximum Load (List 2 - typically end of discharge) - 80% of protector rating.
• Field-wired Conductors - Follow all National Electric Code (NEC) and local rules and regulations when
making field connections.
• Size field-wired conductors based on listed recommendations, National Electric Code (NEC)
and/or local codes based on 70°C ampacity.
• Insulation rating (minimum): 90°C; 105°C if internal to enclosed equipment cabinets.
• Dress cables to avoid undue stress on the connectors and damage to the conductors caused by
routing around sharp edges or routing in areas where wires could get pinched.

Precautions
Read and follow these precautions.
• General precautions:
• Use only properly insulated tools.
• Remove all metallic objects (key chains, glasses, rings, watches, other jewelry, etc.).
• Wear safety glasses.
• Test circuits before touching.
• Lock out and tag circuit breakers/fuses when possible to prevent accidental turn on.
• Be aware of potential hazards before servicing equipment.
• Identify exposed hazardous electrical potentials on connectors, wiring, etc. (note the condition
of these circuits, especially wiring).
• Use care when removing or replacing covers; avoid contacting circuits.
• Use a personal ESD strap when accessing or removing electronic components.
• The equipment must be installed, serviced, and operated only by skilled, qualified personnel who
have the necessary knowledge and practical experience with electrical equipment and who
understand the hazards that can arise when working on this type of equipment.
• Exercise care and follow all safety warnings and practices when servicing this equipment. Hazardous
energy and voltages are present in the unit and on the interface cables that can shock or cause
serious injury.
• Batteries may be connected in parallel with the output of the rectifiers. Turning off the rectifiers will
not necessarily remove power from the bus. Make sure the battery power is also disconnected
and/or follow safety procedures while working on any equipment that contains hazardous
energy/voltage.
• Electricity produces magnetic fields that can affect implanted medical electronic devices, such as
pacemakers. The strength of the magnetic field depends on the amount of current in the circuit, as
well as other conditions (such as number of conductors, placement, and distance from the
conductor). DC power and distribution systems, including batteries, can operate at high current
levels. Personnel with electronic medical devices need to be aware of their restrictions when
working around electricity.
