34 Adding and replacing DC power supplies

Preparing cables
Nortel does not supply the cables for connecting the DC power supply to the DC
input power source. Select cables that comply with the electrical code of the
country where you will use the DC power supply.
If you ordered the optional breaker interface panel (BIP), Nortel ships the cables
for connecting the BIP to the 8004DC power supply. Go to
“Installing the power
supply” on page 36 .
To prepare cables for connecting the power supply:
1 Strip 0.81 in. (2.1 cm) of insulation from the ends of the cables. See Figure 8
for 8004DC. See Figure 9 on page 35 for 8005DC.
Figure 8 Cable stripping requirements for 8004DC
Caution: You have the sole responsibility of ensuring that the
connection cable used with the DC power supply is appropriate for use
with the DC power source to which the power supply is connected.
Consider gauge, flammability, and mechanical serviceability when
determining which cables to use.
