Safety and Grounding

Read the following information before installing or operating your rack power

distribution unit (PDU):

DANGER

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH

• This PDU is intended for indoor use only.

• Do not install this PDU where excessive moisture or heat is present.

• Never install any wiring, equipment, or PDUs during a lightning storm.

• Plug this PDU into a three-wire, grounded power outlet only. The power outlet

must be connected to appropriate branch circuit/mains protection (fuse or circuit

breaker). Connection to any other type of power outlet may result in a shock

hazard.

• Use only the supplied brackets for mounting, and use only the supplied hardware

to attach the mounting brackets.

• Do not use extension cords or adapters with this PDU.

• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions.

• Check that the power cord, plug, and socket are in good condition.

• Disconnect the PDU from the power outlet before you install or connect

equipment to reduce the risk of electric shock when you cannot verify grounding.

Reconnect the PDU to the power outlet only after you make all connections.

• Use a protective earth connector with equipment. This type of connector carries

the leakage current from the load devices (computer equipment). Do not exceed a

total leakage current of 3.5 mA.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
