2 INSTALLATION

Use the following images in the mounting section to install your rack PDU.

NOTE: Please visit http://www.VertivCo.com/ComplianceRegulatoryInfo for important safety

information prior to installation.

To install your unit:

1.

Using appropriate hardware, mount the unit to the rack.

2. Plug the rPDU into an appropriately-rated and protected branch-circuit receptacle.

3. Plug in the devices to be powered by the rPDU.

4. Turn on each device connected to the rPDU.

NOTE: It is recommended that all connected equipment is powered on in a sequential manner to avoid

high inrush current.

NOTE: XP Series rPDUs may optionally be configured as Isolated Ground units. All Isolated Ground

units will be shipped with an enclosure grounding cable. This cable must be connected between the

enclosure and a reliable safety ground.
