Safety Precautions - Read the following before installing or operating the Power Distribution Unit (PDU):

1. CAUTION! Use ONLY the supplied hardware (including screws, pegs and cord retainer clips) to attach the mounting brackets. Using different hardware or improper installations may cause damage that is NOT covered by this warranty.
2. The PDU must only be plugged into a three-wire, grounded outlet on a circuit protected by a fuse or circuit breaker. Connection to any other type of power outlet may result in a shock hazard.
3. Do not use extension cords or adapters with this PDU.
4. Never install a PDU, or associated wiring or equipment, during a lightning storm.
5. Check that the power cord, plug, and socket are in good condition.
6. CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, this PDU should be installed in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor area free of conductive contaminants. Do not install this PDU where excessive moisture or heat is present.

Installation

Use a screwdriver to gently remove the LED Meter. Rotate the LED Meter 90 degrees, and insert back into the PDU.

Electrical Installation

Step 1 – Receptacle evaluation

Ensure that the plug type of your PDU unit (e.g. NEMA 5-15P, NEMA 5-20P, NEMA L5-30P) matches the wall receptacle type that you are using.

PDU must be plugged into a three-wire, grounded wall receptacle only. The wall receptacle must also be connected to an appropriate branch circuit/main with fuse or circuit breaker protection. Connection to any other type of wall receptacle may result in a shock hazard.

Step 2 – Plug the PDU into the wall receptacle

Step 3 – Attach equipment

Before attaching equipment, it is important to calculate the total load that you will be placing on the PDU. It is extremely important not to exceed the PDU's maximum current load (as outlined in the Specifications section). In order to determine your total load, simply add up the amperage of your devices and ensure that it does not exceed the unit's capacity.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause Solution
PDU Outlets do not provide power to connected equipment	1. Open breaker2. Loose power cord	Reset Breaker check if plug is completely connected.If the problem remains contact tech support.
Amperage displayed on Amperage Meter exceeds the unit's capability (Metered type only)	1. Overload2. Amperage meter is damaged	The meter will flash when overloaded.Reduce the load on the PDU until the overload is gone.If the problem remains contact tech support.
Circuit breaker has tripped	1. Sustained overload2. Excessive ambient or internal temperatures.3. Faulty breaker	Reset Breaker.If the problem remains contact tech support.
