Apple Xserve RAID - Manual (Page 42)

Connecting Xserve RAID to a Host System and a Network 43
Connecting Power to the System
The final step in preparing the system is connecting a power cord to each power supply on
the back panel of Xserve RAID.
Follow these steps to connect the two power cords.
1 Lift the small support clip on the system’s back panel, then connect one of the power cords
to the socket at the lower right of one power supply.
Note: Be sure to use the power cords supplied with the system to ensure that the clip holds
them securely and avoids accidental removal of a cord. If you received more than two power
cords, use the ones with plugs compatible with the electrical supply for your location.
2 Secure the support clip to hold the power cord in place.
The half-circle at the front center of the clip goes over the cord.
3 Connect the second power cord and secure the clip on the cord.
4 Plug the cords into a power strip, outlet, or other power source.
Note: For additional protection, connect each of the power cords to a different electrical
circuit, preferably on different power grids.
Snap the power cord retainer clips over the power cords.
