How to Install HPE 8-Outlet Power Strip

• Plan placement: Choose a stable, ventilated location near the equipment that will be powered. Ensure there is enough clearance for cables and airflow around the strip to prevent overheating and to facilitate cable management.
• Prepare the power source: Verify that the available AC supply matches the IEC C20 input requirements implied by the strip, and confirm total load will stay within safe limits for the circuit and power strip design.
• Position the power strip: Place it on a flat surface or within a suitable rack area where it can be easily reached for plugging in devices and performing routine checks. If rack mounting is supported by your environment, follow your organization’s guidelines for securing the unit properly.
• Connect devices: Start plugging IT devices into the 8 IEC 60320 C13 outlets, distributing power loads evenly across outlets. Avoid overloading any single outlet or circuit; consider the power requirements of high-draw devices to maintain stable operation.
• Finalize cabling and testing: Route cables neatly to minimize tangling and ensure there is no obstruction to vents or access panels. After all connections are made, power on the devices sequentially to confirm stable startup and monitor for any unusual warmth or noise, addressing issues if they arise.
