4 Power Distribution Unit Installation

This chapter provides installation instructions for qualified personnel for installing an HPE Basic
PDU.
Before installation, read the Important Safety Information that ships with the product, or see the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise Safety and Compliance website:

WARNING!
installation of options and routine maintenance and service of this product must be performed
by individuals who are knowledgeable about the procedures, precautions, and hazards associated
with AC power products.
This PDU is intended only for ITE loads with linear and Power Factor Correction input current.
If non-linear loads are connected, the nameplate current rating of the PDU must be reduced by
a factor of 0.8.

Important Power Safety Precautions

Follow these safety precautions when connecting multiple hardware components to power
sources:
WARNING!
connection before connecting the power supply.
The summation of input power for multiple pieces of information technology equipment through
the use of power products can result in high-leakage currents.
If the total system leakage current for a system of components exceeds 3.5 mA:
The use of a detachable input power cord is prohibited.
The input power cord must be securely attached, and it should be connected to the AC mains
by hardwiring or through the use of a non-residential, industrial-styled plug that maintains
positive earth connection.
If the total system leakage current through the ground conductor exceeds 5% of the input
current per line under normal operating conditions, the system loads should be divided
among multiple power connections.
