How to install HPE Enlogic by nVent G3 Metered 1-phase 2.8kVA/L5-30P 24A/120V PDU

Install this metered PDU with attention to rack layout, safety, and energy planning. Follow these steps to ensure a secure, compliant, and efficient deployment in your data center or IT room:

• Plan your rack space and confirm there is adequate airflow around the PDU to prevent heat buildup. Check that the rack’s cable management and mounting rails can accommodate the PDU’s dimensions and weight.
• Mount the PDU securely in the selected rack position using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure the unit is fastened firmly to prevent movement during maintenance or equipment changes.
• Connect the L5-30P input plug to a dedicated 120V circuit that can safely supply at least 24A. Verify that the circuit protection matches the PDU’s current rating and complies with local electrical codes.
• Route power cables carefully to avoid pinching or interference with airflow. Connect IT devices to the PDU’s outlets, keeping high-demand equipment distributed across outlets to balance load.
• Power up the PDU and verify that the LCD/management interface (if equipped) displays correct voltage, current, and energy usage. Confirm outlet status indicators and ensure all connected devices are receiving power.
• Configure metering settings and, if applicable, integrate with your HPE Enlogic G3 management system for centralized monitoring, alerting, and reporting. Document the configuration for future audits and troubleshooting.
• Perform a brief load test to confirm that the PDU maintains stable voltage under expected maximum loads. Monitor for thermal performance and adjust cable management or device placement if required.
