9.9.4 AC POWER CABLING<br />

WARNING<br />

Facility AC wiring within junction boxes, receptacles, <strong>and</strong> switches shall be per<strong>for</strong>med<br />

by a licensed <strong>and</strong> bonded electrical contractor. Personnel safety <strong>and</strong> liability hazards<br />

can result from AC wiring per<strong>for</strong>med by installation personnel other than an electrical<br />

contractor.<br />

When an open equipment rack is used, hardwiring of power is not always possible. Mounting a<br />

dedicated simplex receptacle or receptacle assembly on the rack may be the most convenient method of<br />

supplying power, especially if multiple pieces of equipment are mounted on the rack.<br />

These receptacle assemblies can be pre-manufactured <strong>and</strong> mounted to the top face of an equipment<br />

rack. Mounting can also use a fabricated power pole mounted between racks.<br />
