Connecting the server to power
Before you begin
Ensure that proper power and grounding are available for all the power 
outlets serving the CallPilot server and its associated peripherals. Power for 
these devices must be wired and fused independently of all other 
receptacles, and referenced to the same ground as the PBX system. 
A qualified electrician must implement the single-point ground reference as 
required between the power outlets of the CallPilot server and the power 
outlets of the switch. 
Provide a sufficient number of properly grounded power outlets or power 
bars for all equipment. For more information, refer to grounding and power 
requirements in this document and in the Planning and Engineering Guide 
(555-7101-101).
The single-point ground (SPG) required by the system can be an isolated 
ground (IG) bus or AC equipment ground (ACEG) bus in the service panel 
or transformer. The system must be connected to safety ground/protective 
earth in accordance with NEC requirements. For international use, the 
system must be connected to safety ground/protective earth in accordance 
with Paragraph 2.5 of EN60950/IEC950.
Note: Refer to Large System: Planning and Engineering (553-3021-120) for 
a complete description of approved ground sources and methods. Insulated 
ground wire must be used for system grounding.
