2.8.5 Branch overcurrent protection
Models having greater than 20A input-current rating are equipped with branch overcurrent protection,
utilizing UL 489-listed hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers with a flush-mount, rocker-style actuator. This
protects each receptacle group against overload and short circuits by interrupting the fault current
flowing in the line-to-line, line-to-neutral and line-to-PE conductors of the branch circuits. The branch
circuit breaker ratings apply over the full, rated operating temperature and frequency.
The flush-mount breakers guard against accidental trips that could interrupt power to the connected
load. Manually tripping a breaker requires a small, flat blade, such as a screw driver (see
Opening and
Closing Circuit Breakers
on page 36.)
Low-profile circuit breakers are used on all rack PDU with two or three branch circuits less than 240 VAC
rating in a line-neutral configuration. Standard-profile circuit breakers are used on rack PDU with six
branch circuits or having a 240 VAC rating. Each type of circuit breaker is a rocker style as illustrated in
the following figure.
The branch circuit breaker labeling (A through F) shows which receptacles are protected by each
specific breaker. For example, receptacles on Branch A are protected by the circuit breaker labeled A.
Depending upon region and model, PDUs may also have labeling showing the phase associated with each
circuit breaker.
NOTE: The branch circuit breaker is not designed to be used as a disconnect device for the connected
load.
