TRIP SWITCH APPENDIX
These products are fitted with thermal circuit breaker/power switches with indicator as a
fail safe
and should not be
used to determine excessive current drawer.
These are not an
RCD
and do not function in the same way.
USERS OF THESE PDU'S SHOULD PRE-DETERMINE THE MAXIMUM SAFE LOAD AS INDICATED ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT.
PLEASE NOTE:
An RCD is a safety switch that protects people from electrical shock; a circuit breaker protects the wiring
and electrical components attached to the unit.
In normal operation there will be peaks in the current draw and these switches allow for this, but will switch if the
overload is continuous.
