how to install Eaton Tripp Lite Series 5.8kW Single-phase Switched Automatic Transfer Switch Pd

• Prepare a clean, ventilated 19" equipment rack space. Ensure the rack has adequate room for airflow and cable management, and verify load capacity for the 2U PDU.
• Mount the PDU into the rack rails, aligning the chassis with existing equipment standards. Securely fasten using the supplied hardware to prevent movement during operation.
• Connect the two 200-240V L6-30P input cords to dedicated power sources or circuits that meet your facility’s electrical requirements. Ensure both inputs are properly seated and secured.
• Route power and data cables with care, separating high-current power cords from network cables to minimize interference. Use cable ties or management channels to maintain neat, safe cabling.
• Power on the PDU and verify the switched automatic transfer mode. Test the transfer capability by simulating a power disruption on one input and observing the load transfer to the alternate input. Confirm each outlet’s readiness by testing connected devices for continuous power delivery.
