Troubleshooting

PDU not powering on

Check that the IEC-C14 plug is securely connected to the power source and that the power source is active. Ensure the neon illuminated rocker switch is in the 'on' position.

Connected devices are not receiving power

Verify that the PDU itself is powered on (check the neon switch). Ensure the total power draw of connected devices does not exceed the PDU's 4000W limit. Check individual device power cables.

Surge protection indicator (if applicable) shows an issue

If the PDU has a specific surge protection status indicator that is off or red, it may mean the surge protection has been compromised. Contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician for assessment.

Overheating of the PDU

Ensure the PDU is not overloaded and that there is sufficient ventilation around the unit and connected devices. Remove any obstructions blocking airflow.
