Connecting a Pigtail to the E1135C PDU
The E1135C PDU is the replacement for the E1131A,
and E1135A/B PDUs. The input terminals on the
E1135C on the mains disconnect switch easily fit
conductor size 10 square millimeters (#8 AWG). It is
strongly suggested that if the recommended conductor
size

in the following tables is greater than 10 square
millimeters (#8 AWG), that a 450 mm (18-inches) to
609 mm (24-inches) pig tail be created using 10 square
millimeters (#8 AWG) conductor, and the recommended
larger cable be connected to the pigtail. See

It is difficult to fit conductor size 16 square millimeters (AWG 6) into the mains disconnect switch, and 25 square millimeters (AWG 4)
will not fit. With an 450 mm (18-inches) to 690 mm (24-inches length pigtail, 10 square millimeters (#8 AWG) will safely carry the 3070
load)
