PowerBlade PBC18 Quick Install Guide

e. Connect the positive feed wire to the terminal block marked +

(positive).

Connect the negative feed wire to the terminal block marked -
(negative).

Warning
Safety Hazard - Check to see if there are any exposed copper strands
coming from the installed wires. When this installation is done correctly
there should be no exposed copper wire strands extending from the
terminal block. Any exposed wiring can conduct harmful levels of
electricity to persons touching the wires.

g. Secure the tray supply cable near the rack using multiple cable ties

(not provided). This will help minimize the chance of the connections
being disturbed by casual contact with the wiring. It is recommended
that you use at least four cable ties 10 centimeters (4 inches) apart
with the first one located within 15 centimeters (6 inches) of the
terminal block.

Note
This system will work with a positive grounded or negative grounded
DC system.

h. Connect the three DC wires to a DC power source.

Verify that the PWR1 LED on the front of the chassis is green. If the LED
is OFF, refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 31 for further instructions.
