Warnings

Receiving/moving

Do not tilt the PDU greater than 45° from its vertical axis. Never lay the PDU on its side.

Installation/Maintenance

Only a certified electrician can:

Connect the PDU to its power source

Connect a switch to the EPO interface on the PDU

Install a customer-specified, hard-wired power cable

Only a certified electrician or an APC Field Service Engineer can perform maintenance of the PDU.

When you connect the PDU to its power source, you must install a circuit breaker to protect the PDU against over-current. Determine the type of circuit breaker that you need to install:

Input Voltage

Circuit Breaker Sizing

208V225A

480V90A

600V75A

Maintenance performed while the PDU is receiving input power

APC does not recommend that you perform maintenance of the PDU while it is receiving input power. However, due to the critical nature of data center loads, this may occur. If you must perform maintenance while the PDU is receiving input power, observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of electric shock:

1.Never work alone.

2.Perform the maintenance only if you are a certified electrician who is trained in the hazards of live electrical installation.

3.Know the procedure for disconnecting electricity to the PDU and the data center in case of an emergency.

4.Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

5.Use double-insulated tools.

6.Always follow local and site regulations when working on the PDU.
