5.
Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the componentsyou are adding to your chassis.
Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails.Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work
up.Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power
surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure. Allow the hot plug hard drives and power supply modules to cool before touching
them.6. Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the serversclosed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
4 3-
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the room.Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environmentcompatible with the manufacturers maximum rated ambient temperature.
Reduced Airflow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airflow required forsafe operation is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arisedue to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supplycircuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have onovercurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipmentnameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Ground
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself shouldbe grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connections otherthan the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power strips, etc.).
