How to Install HPE 48A/230V Outlets (6) C19/1U Horizontal Intl PDU
Follow these steps to install the PDU safely and efficiently in a standard 19-inch rack:
- Plan your rack layout and cable routing to maintain proper airflow around equipment and avoid obstruction of vents or panels.
- Power down the rack and prepare the area for installation. Verify that your mains supply matches the 230V international configuration of the PDU.
- Align the PDU with the rack’s rear mounting rails and secure it using the appropriate screws or mounting hardware provided with the unit. Ensure the PDU sits evenly and firmly to prevent vibration or movement during operation.
- Connect the PDU to a suitable mains power source using a compliant power cord rated for 230V and the PDU’s current draw. Check local electrical codes and facility guidelines before applying power.
- Route IT equipment power cables to the six C19 outlets, organizing cables to minimize tangling and to preserve airflow. Label outlets as needed to simplify future maintenance and troubleshooting.
- Power up the rack and verify that all connected devices receive power. Confirm outlet continuity and ensure there are no tripped breakers or abnormal heat buildup in the rack area.
- Perform a basic functional check, test idle power draw, and review cabling hygiene. Periodically inspect connections and replace any worn cords promptly to maintain reliable operation.
