temperature of the rack environment may be greater

than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be

given to installing the equipment in an environment

compatible with the maximum ambient temperature

(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in

2.

a rack should be such that the amount of air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment is not

compromised. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the

equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous

condition is not created due to uneven mechanical

loading.

Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to

3.

the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit

and the effect that overloading of the circuits might

have on over-current protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate

ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted

equipment should be maintained. Particular attention

should be given to supply connections other than

direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of
power strips).”
