Certified - CompTIA Server+

This episode covers the safety protocols and physical considerations involved in installing and maintaining server equipment. You’ll learn proper lifting techniques to prevent injury, how to maintain rack balance during installation, and why floor load ratings are critical in data center planning. The discussion also addresses personal protective equipment and safe tool use in confined technical spaces.

We expand on how these safety measures tie directly to both exam content and real-world compliance requirements. Examples include evaluating whether a floor can support high-density racks, preventing tip hazards during equipment moves, and adhering to occupational safety standards. This knowledge ensures that candidates can approach installation tasks with both operational and safety priorities in mind, which is essential for both certification success and workplace best practices.
