When replacing FRUs while the switch is running, be aware of electrical safety hazards.

The switch uses a modular, hot-swappable architecture, and supports field replaceable units (FRUs). You
can replace any of FRUs when the switch is running.

Replacing a power module

WARNING!

Strictly follow the procedures shown in

Figure 48

and

When replacing a power module while the switch is running, be aware of electrical safety hazards.

Add a circuit breaker to the power line for each power module. Before replacing a power module, turn
off its circuit breaker.

The power module might be of high temperature. Remove it with caution.

To install the removed power module to the chassis again, install it after the status LED on it is off.
