PowerBrite PB15Pro Front Panel 
1:   Circuit breaker- 
This circuit breaker will trip whenever the total load on the 
PB15Pro (all rear panel switched outlets plus the front-panel unswitched 
convenience outlet) exceeds 15 amps.  To reset it, unplug one or more devices so 
as to reduce the load and gently press the circuit breaker in until you hear it click.
 
Note: It may take a minute to cool before you can reset it. 
2:   Dimmer - Use this to adjust the level of the LED light in the slide out Lamps.
3:   Lamps- Contains the PB15Pro’s 5-LED light.  Use the Dimmer control (see #2 
above) to turn the light on or off.  To turn off the lamp, gently slide the lamp back 
in.  
4:   Voltmeter- This three digit LED meter shows the amount of voltage in the 
electrical signal being received by the PowerBrite PB15Pro. 
 
 WARNING: Severe voltage swings can cause  damage to connected 
equipment.  If you see the voltmeter changing drastically or rapidly, 
disconnect the PB15Pro until the source of the problem is identified. 
5:  Vents- Convection cooling is accomplished by the front panel vent holes.
6:    Ammeter- This three digit LED meter shows the amount of current being drawn 
by equipment connected to the PB PB15Pro.  
 
 WARNING: Severe current swings can cause damage to connected 
equipment. If you see the ammeter changing drastically or rapidly, 
disconnect the PB15Pro until the source of the problem is identified and 
repaired. 
7:   Unswitched convenience outlet- This 3-pin AC outlet is active whenever the 
PB15Pro is plugged in, regardless of the setting of the Outlets switch (see #8 
below). 
8:   Outlets switch- Use this to turn the rear-panel outlets on or off.  When on, the 
status light inside this switch is lit red.
