Cabling instructions for vertical-mount PDUs
If your Rack PDU came with more than one line cord, select either the high-voltage
cord or the low-voltage cord for your installation. Use the following procedure to
connect and route cables for Rack PDUs that you mounted vertically in the side of
your rack cabinet:
1. Connect the line cord that comes with this option to th e inlet on the Rack PDU;
then, remove the screw on the cable clamp 1 and route the line cord through the
clamp.

Overloading a branch circuit is potentially a fire hazard and a shock hazard
under certain conditions. To avoid these hazards, ensure that your system
electrical requirements do not exceed branch circuit protection requirements.
Refer to the information that is provided with your IBM device for electrical
specifiacations. Also adhere to the following statements:
1. If you are connecting to a 120-127 V ac power source, connect each power
cord to a separate branch circui t.
2. If you are connecting to a 200-240 V ac power source and the branch
circuit rating is:
a. 13 amps or less, connect each power cord to a separate branch circuit.
b. 14 amps to 19 amps, do not connect m ore than two power cords to th e
same branch circuit.
c. 20 amps or greater, you may connect up to three power cords to the
same branch circuit.
