Grounding Guidelines

Use the following guidelines for grounding the server:

• The rack must use grounding type power cords. For example, Oracle racks are wired for three-wire, grounding-type power cords.

• Always connect the grounding-type power cords to grounded power outlets.

• Because different grounding methods are used, depending on location, verify the grounding type. For the correct grounding method, refer to local electrical codes.

• Ensure that a facility administrator or qualified electrical engineer verifies the grounding method for the building and performs the grounding work.
