How to Install and Configure Panduit G5 Power Distribution Units (PDUs)

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for physically installing, grounding, connecting to power, and performing initial configuration of Panduit G5 Metered, Switched, and Metered & Switched Power Distribution Units (PDUs) in a datacenter rack.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver

Supplies needed:

PDU mounting hardware (buttons, screws, cage nuts as applicable), Cable ties (for cord retention), Ground bonding cable, Appropriate input cord (for Universal Input PDUs)

  1. Review Safety Information and Prepare

    Before beginning, read all instructions and important safety information. Ensure that installation is performed by qualified personnel. Be aware of high leakage currents and lethal voltages. Ensure all circuit breakers are in the off position before connecting input power. Do not overload the PDU. Install in a temperature and humidity controlled, indoor environment.

  2. Install PDU Mounting Hardware

    For vertical PDUs, align and install the mounting buttons with the screw holes on the face opposite the outlets (for outlets facing the center of the rack) or on the sides of the PDU (for outlets facing the back or front of the rack). For 1U/2U PDUs, install cage nuts at the desired U locations in the rack.

  3. Mount the PDU in the Rack

    For vertical PDUs, insert the mounting buttons into the keyhole slots on the PDU mounting bracket in the rack. For 1U/2U PDUs, screw the mounting bracket ears into the RETMA rail surface at the U location where the cage nuts were installed. Ensure the PDU is securely fastened.

  4. Ground the PDU

    Connect a ground bonding cable to the external ground bonding point located on the PDU chassis. Bond the PDU to a known earthed reference terminal in the building, grounding strip, or grounding bus bar. Ensure the bonding conductor meets minimum requirements (e.g., 12 AWG for up to 32A).

  5. Attach Input Cord to Universal Input Connector (Universal Input PDUs Only)

    If installing a Universal Input PDU, ensure the facility side connector is disconnected. Open the input cord connector latches on the PDU, insert the input cord plug, and then close the latches to lock the input cord into the connector. This step must be performed by a 'skilled person'.

  6. Connect the PDU to a Power Source

    Turn the feed circuit breaker Off. Ensure all circuit breakers on the PDU are set to On. Connect each PDU to an appropriately rated branch circuit, referring to the PDU label for input ratings. Turn the feed circuit breaker On. The OLED screen will display a status bar, and then the Main Menu.

  7. Secure Connected Device Power Cords

    For most C13 and C19 outlets with integrated cord retention, plug in the power cord, then use the provided tie wraps. Slide the tie wrap end into the notch next to the outlet and wrap it around the cord to secure it. For dual-sided models or other outlets, use compatible locking power cords if available.

  8. Configure Universal Input PDU Input Type (Web Interface)

    For Universal Input PDUs, connect to the Web interface (refer to the User Manual). Navigate to the System Management page, select 'Set Input Cord' under actions, choose the correct cord type from the pull-down menu, and select 'Save'. The PDU will reset.

  9. Configure Dual Rated PDU (CLI)

    If installing a dual-rated PDU, perform an additional CLI configuration step to enable the Web interface to report the correct power capacity. Refer to the 'CLI Commands' section in the User Manual for detailed instructions.
