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.
• If a socket-outlet is not accessible to the equipment, a socket-outlet shall be
installed.
• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions.
• Che
ck 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.
• Do not handle any kind of metallic connector before the power has been
removed.
• Use one hand, whenever possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables
to avoid a possible shock from touching two surfaces with different
grounds.
• This unit does not have any user-serviceable parts. Repairs are to be
performed only by factory-trained service personnel.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
