Installation
Attach each input plug of the PDU to a grounded outlet. The input plugs, power cords,
2
breakers and outlets are color-coded in black and gray to correspond to the two independent
power circuits. WARNING: Attach each input plug to a separate power circuit. Consult
with the electrician at the installation site if necessary.
3
Attach equipment to the PDU. Do not exceed the load rating for each circuit; distribute
equipment appropriately between the two circuits to obtain the maximum utility from the
PDU.
4
Optional Installation. The PDU includes two adapters that convert the L5-20P input plugs to
5-20P input plugs. Use both adapters, a single adapter or neither of the adapters. The
adapters are optional; the PDU will work properly without connecting the adapters. The
adapters are not color-coded.

NEMA L5-20P Input Plugs: The input plugs and associated power cords
are color-coded to correspond with each of the independent power
circuits.
NEMA 5-20P Plug Adapters: The adapters convert the input plugs from
NEMA L5-20P to NEMA 5-20P . The adapters are not color-coded.
Circuit Breakers: If the current drawn by the equipment connected to the
corresponding independent power circuit exceeds that circuit's Maximum Load
Rating for longer than a few seconds, a circuit breaker will trip to prevent
possible damage. When a circuit breaker trips, its plunger will pop up.
Disconnect excess equipment from the affected circuit and allow the breaker
to cool one minute before depressing the plunger to reset the breaker. The
circuit breakers are color-coded to correspond with each of the independent
power circuits.
NEMA 5-15/20R Outlets: The outlets are color-coded to correspond
with each of the independent power circuits.
