PM20-L30A IPDU
The PM20-L30A IPDU has two 15-amp circuit breakers. The first circuit breaker controls outlets
11 through 20; the second controls outlets 1 through 10 as well as the power supply to the logic
board. In the event that the total current flow to outlets 11 through 20 exceeds 15 amps due to
equipment connected to these outlets, then the first circuit breaker will trip causing outlets 11
through 20 to shutdown. This does not affect outlets 1 through 10 which is controlled by the second
circuit breaker.

If, however, current overload causes the second circuit breaker to trip, then the entire power unit
shuts down because the power supply is also tied to the second circuit breaker.

PM20i-L30A IPDU
The PM20i-L30A IPDU has two 15-amp circuit breakers. The first circuit breaker controls outlets
11 through 20; the second controls outlets 1 through 10. In the event that the total current flow to
outlets 11 through 20 exceeds 15 amps due to equipment connected to these outlets, then the first

As the PM20i-L30A IPDU has the controller (see Control Board in the figure below) powered from
the line side of one of the circuit breakers, the whole unit will become inoperative only when both
circuit breakers trip; however, the controller will remain functioning.
