How to Install a Panduit EL2P Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for qualified personnel to safely install a Panduit Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) into a datacenter rack or cabinet, covering mounting, grounding, and connecting to a power source.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

#2 Phillips screwdriver, T10 Torx screwdriver, T20 Torx screwdriver, 2.5mm hex key Allen wrench

Supplies needed:

Cage nuts, Ground bonding cable, Blanking panels

  1. Mount the PDU in the Rack

    Determine the PDU form factor (vertical or horizontal) and the desired mounting location in the rack or cabinet. For vertical PDUs, insert the pre-installed mounting buttons into the keyhole slots on the rack's PDU mounting bracket. Secure them using a #2 Phillips screwdriver to a recommended torque of 3.0Nm. For horizontal PDUs, install cage nuts at the desired U location on the RETMA rails, then screw the PDU's mounting bracket ears into the rail surface. Ensure a minimum clearance of 2 to 3 inches between the PDU chassis and cabinet frame for proper airflow, and seal unused rack spaces with blanking panels.

  2. Ground the PDU

    Connect a ground bonding cable to the external ground bonding point on the PDU chassis. This point is typically found on the surface with the outlets. Bond the PDU to a known earthed reference terminal in the building or to the rack metalwork for supplementary Earth bonding. Ensure the ground bonding cable conductor size meets all applicable National or Local Electrical Codes. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock due to high leakage currents, ensure a reliable grounded (earthed) connection before connecting the PDU to AC power.

  3. Connect the PDU to a Power Source

    Before connecting, turn the feed circuit breaker for the power source Off and ensure all circuit breakers on the PDU are set to On. Connect the PDU's input power cord to an appropriately rated branch circuit, adhering to all local and national electrical codes. Refer to the compliance label on the PDU for input ratings. Once connected, turn the feed circuit breaker On. Wait for the operating system to load; the Main Menu will display on the screen. WARNING: Connect only to a circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection and a grounded electrical outlet. Do not overload the PDU.
