How to install Eaton ePDU TPC12F-A2

• Plan your rack layout: Identify a suitable 1U space in your equipment rack that provides adequate clearance for ventilation and cable management. Ensure there is a stable, properly grounded power source setup that matches the 120 V AC input requirements of the TPC12F-A2.
• Prepare the rack: If your rack uses front-mill or square-hole mounting, verify you have the appropriate mounting rails and screws. The TPC12F-A2 is designed for horizontal, 1U installation, so position it where outlets remain accessible and away from densely packed cables.
• Mount the PDU: Secure the PDU to the rack using the included mounting hardware. Align the unit with the rack’s vertical posts and tighten fasteners to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant installation appropriate for temperature-controlled environments and near-dense cabling.
• Connect the power input: Plug the NEMA L5-15P inlet into a compatible 120 V power distribution circuit or PDU output, making sure that the circuit can handle the 1.92 kW maximum load. Confirm that the inlet cable is routed cleanly to avoid strain on the plug and to maintain proper clearance for airflow and maintenance access.
• Connect devices to outlets and configure monitoring: Distribute servers, switches, storage, and other devices across the 12 NEMA 5-20R outlets. If you are using Eaton’s management software or interface, configure remote relay control and enable load monitoring for real-time visibility into outlet-level power usage. Test power-on sequence and verify that each outlet reflects the expected status in the monitoring dashboard.
• Power-on validation and ongoing management: After powering on, verify that all connected devices receive stable power, monitor for any uneven current draw, and adjust outlet assignments as needed. Use the remote control features to power-cycle non-responsive equipment, and review load data regularly to optimize capacity and energy efficiency.
