Engineering labels for DC power cords

These labels are affixed to DC cords that provide power for racks, and the protection grounding cables

including the –48V, PGND, and BGND cables. The labels for DC power cords are affixed to one side of

the identification plates on cable ties.

Table 74 Information on labels affixed to DC power cords

Content Meaning

MN(BC)-–48Vn

Loaded cabinet side—Only MN is used to identify the cabinet number (row

number and column number in the equipment room).

Power cabinet side—MN identifies the row and column number of the power

distribution equipment like the control cabinet and distribution box. BC

identifies the row and column number of the –48V connector (if there is no row
number or column number, or the connector can be identified without them,

BC can be omitted). RTN and PGND have no row and column number for

identification.

n—Power port number in down-top and left-right order, in the range of 1 to 3.

MN(BC)-RTN

MN(BC)-PGND

The label only carries location information about the peer equipment, control cabinet, or distribution box,

while information about the local end is not necessary.

Table 74

lists information about two –48V power

supplies on the label. Give information for other DC voltages (such as 24V, 60V) in similar methods.
Make sure labels are affixed in the correct direction. After the cable ties are bundled onto the cable, the
identification plates with the labels must face up, and the text on the labels in the same cabinet must be

in the same direction, as shown in

Figure 86 Example of labels on a DC power cord

A01/B08––48V2 (loaded cabinet side)—The power cord is –48V2 DC supply, which is from the 8

th

connector on the second row of –48V bus bar in the cabinet on Row A, and Column 1 in the

equipment room.

B03––48V2 (distribution box side)—The power cord is –48V2 DC supply, which is from the loaded
cabinet on Row B, Column 03 in the equipment room.

In the power distribution box (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission equipment room),

every terminal block on the –48V connector bar has a numeric identification. For example, in the above
label of "A01/B08--48V2", "08" (or sometimes "8") is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
PGND and RTN are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-circuited, so which terminal

is connected makes no difference. You only need to give the row and column numbers of the power

distribution box, instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the copper bar. For
example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is "A01-RTN", it means that the power cord is an RTN
