Dial Shelf Card Safety Recommendations
Dial Shelf Card Safety Recommendations
You must follow these safety instructions when installing T1, E1, or T3 trunk cards in a Cisco 5814
dial shelf. Failure to install dial shelf cards in accordance with these instructions will invalidate the
approval.
• The dial shelf card might contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuitry. Ensure that
attachments at the interconnection ports of the apparatus are also SELV circuits. (SELV circuits
are so designed and protected that, under both normal conditions and likely fault conditions, the
voltage that can be drawn is not hazardous.)
• Do not work on the system or connect and disconnect cables during a lightning storm.
Note The host chassis should always be connected to earth ground during normal use.
• The the dial shelf card gets hot during operation, refer to the card handling warning, page 26.
If you have any doubt as to how to safely install a system component correctly in a Cisco 5814 dial
shelf, please contact a qualified telecommunications engineer.
General Installation Requirements
This section describes the general installation requirements for any dial shelf card installed in a
Cisco 5814 dial shelf.
Where applicable, each trunk card and modem card is approved only for installation in a host and
with host attachments, which are either type approved for such apparatus or covered by a General
Approval. Clearance and creepage distances of X millimeters (mm) and Y mm, as listed in Table 1,
must be maintained between the dial shelf card and other parts of the host, including any other dial
shelf cards.
Creepage distance is defined as the minimum distance between two points (following the contour of
the insulator) measured across the surface of an insulator. Clearance distance is defined as the
minimum distance between two points (line of sight) measured in air.
Table 1 Creepage and Clearance Distances Based on Voltage
Clearance and creepage distances are measured between adjacent parts, as shown in Figure 6.
Voltage Used or Generated by Other Parts

1. Vrms = root mean square voltage.
2. VDC = volts direct current.

3. The creepage distances not in parentheses apply when the equipment is installed in a normal office environment. The larger
dimensions, given in parentheses, must be applied when the equipment is installed in an environment in which dust and other
types of pollution could conduct electricity because of the effects of dampness and condensation. This applies to locations
subject to high humidity.

Up to 50 2.4 (3.8) 2.0
Up to 125 3.0 (4.8) 2.6
Up to 250 5.0 (8.0) 4.0
