Keep the Power Hub as level as possible to prevent the
water inside from accumulating at one end or the other
and submerging the internal electronics. Remove the
screw from the drain hole at the bottom edge of the case.
If water flows out of the drain hole after removal of the
plug, let it flow until it stops. Then slightly and slowly tilt
the case toward the drain hole to remove any remaining
water. Continue to increase the angle of the Power Hub
slowly until no more water drains from the hole. After the
water has been drained, remove the Faceplate. Place
the Power Hub in the most dry environment possible for
a time long enough that any remaining moisture inside
will dry. When it is dry, reintegrate the Power Hub to the
System and test it to determine if it is still functional.

Water Intrusion Remediation
If water intrusion is suspected, and the System is still functional, disconnect power sources entering
the Power Hub from the most distant location possible, power down the System (turn off the power
switches on all of the System components) and then disconnect the Power Hub from the System.
Do not move or relocate what may be a flooded Power Hub.
Transporting the Power Hub
The Power Hub transports like a briefcase and is safe for all modes of transportation, including land,
sea, and air. There are no transport restrictions.
