Use this screw (located by the power strip’s receptacles)
If the current draw of the equipment connected to
your power strip exceeds your model’s Maximum
Load Rating for longer than a few seconds, a cir-
cuit breaker will trip to prevent any possible dam-
age. When a circuit breaker trips, its plunger will
pop up. Remove excess equipment and allow the
breaker to cool one minute before depressing its
plunger to reset the breaker. Caution (PDU2430
model only): If you depress the circuit breaker
plunger during normal operation of your PDU,
power will be interrupted to the receptacles and
connected equipment will not be protected.
