Abstract

An apparatus is provided for forcing a service technician to follow a proper servicing sequence that reduces the potential for an electric shock. Embodiments of the latch mechanism maintain a cable connection unless a tray connector is first disconnected. Embodiments enforce the disconnect sequence using a trigger that is actuated by the disconnecting of the tray connector, a latch-lock in the cable connector that is biased to block a cable connector disconnect mechanism, and a mechanical link between the trigger and the latch-lock. The actuation of the trigger is transmitted by the mechanical link to the latch-lock, which moves in response, unlocking the cable connector and allowing it to be disconnected.
