Product Description

PDUMH30HV horizontal 2U metered rack PDU supports 30A maximum capacity at 208/240V (agency derated to 24A continuous). Includes 12 ft/3.6m attached line cord with L6-30P input plug and 18 output receptacles (16 C13, 2 C19). Outlets are arranged in two separately breakered 9 outlet load banks. Set of two visual current meters tracks the output current of each load bank separately. Supports 2U rack mount installation in 19 inch racks. Included cord retention brackets keeps vital network equipment plugged in and continuously powered. Tripp Lite Metered Power Distribution Units give IT Managers the ability to monitor network power consumption levels to prevent mains, generator, UPS or PDU overloads and to ensure proper load balance in complex redundant power applications. Built-in, easy to read, two-character LED display offers continuous PDU current monitoring data in one-amp increments. Switch-free unfiltered electrical pass-through reliably distributes UPS or generator power to multiple servers and vital networking equipment in rack enclosures, network closets and more. Included mounting brackets support horizontal installation in 19 inch racks or other surfaces, such as under-counter or wall mount configurations.

    Solid but the UI is lacking.
    For the base functionality of delivering power to my home lab this guy is great with plenty of ports and no problems. I am still not sold on the back of rack design but this seems to be the standard so no points off there. Where this struggles is the UI and inaccuracy of the meters. I found that under 500W simply is not even registered and power usage tracking remains skewed even at multiple kilowatts. In short do not count on an accurate reading from this unit.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2021
    Style: 240 VoltsSize: 30 AmpsConfiguration: StandardVerified Purchase
    I’m not sure what’s up with some of the negative feedback on these units. Per the NEC, you can’t place a continuous load (defined as 3 or more hours of operation) on an over current protection device. The 24A max loading on these devices is there to protect would-be home electricians from violating the 80% loading rule, which = 24A on a 30A circuit. I’m not a licensed electrician, but worked for one for many years. If you’re loading an OCPD to 100%, both the wire and breaker are going to get hot- eventually leading to a trip condition. These protections are there to keep you from burning a house down. If you actually need a full continuous 30A, you either need two circuits- or a sub-panel. There are *very few* exceptions to this guidance, and almost nobody meets them (they also require a breaker rated for continuous load). The hardware works fine and does exactly as it’s supposed to do. Happy, and safe customer.

     Works as described, it does move power around when needed. Works great over a year no issues. Thanks

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Rackmount Audio / Video setup or computer setup

    I've used Tripp lites for my rackmount computers in the past and thought this unit would work great in conjunction with their  Tripp Lite HT1210ISOCTR Home Theater IsPRar Power Center w/ remote 12 outlets 5700 Joules  power conditioner for my home theater rack (Omnimount RSF).

    With a receiver, some external amps, and all the sources / consoles I can plug in, I needed more plugs. This rackmount unit is well built, helps me monitor my draw and I can shut it down to avoid any phantom power draws (the game consoles love to suck power it seems).

    A solid option. And, in this application, I needed the plugs on the back versus a mix of front and back or all in the front, but that's because I wanted to hide the wall warts behind it in my rack.

    I prefer Tripp Lite to the more expensive Monster....plus, by rackmounting these, I get them off the floor, as I worry these get hot near the carpet.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of Plugs, Works Great

    This is an updated review. I had originally stated that the meter always displayed "0", regardless of what was plugged in. But apparently, I was just not drawing enough to push it. I plugged in more devices today and started seeing the meter display change.

    Overall, I think this is a great PDU. Tripp Lite has always been good to me and this is no exception. It fits perfectly in my half-rack and has plenty of plugs to power everything within it.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer beware, doesn't work as advertised

    Tripp Lite does not tell the complete truth about how this PDU works. Although this is a metered PDU, the PDU will only display "0" until you reach 25% of the unit's capacity. After I was told this by their technical support, I asked why this wasn't mentioned in the user manual. The manual even states that "the total electrical current used by the PDU will be displayed on the digitial meter in amperes".
    I also asked, what possible value could this have for a consumer, to only see the amp load when the unit is above 25% of the capacity? I want to know how much load the PDU has at ALL times.
    The support person couldn't give me a reasonable answer other than "that's how it works". Obviously, Tripp Lite is aware that it was designed this way, but they don't want you to know that until after you've bought it. Would you buy a car that was designed so that the fuel gauge only worked when it was below 25% of the tank's capacity?
    Update: I was contacted by Tripp Lite technical support; they tell me that the CSR whom I spoke to earlier was wrong about the 25% threshold, and that the ammeter should display even with a 2A load. So they're considering this one defective and sending a replacement unit in "7-10 business days". Will update when received, but for now my rating stands at 1-star due to poor product quality, unclear documentation, and inaccurate technical support.

    I have several of these and they work great. Obviously you need to draw at least 1 amp for the lcd to go from 0 to 1. No decimal places. The paint on this is a dark gray colour. Rack mount ears can be moved to the back if you need that.

    Update, after almost a year still 5 stars. Verified the meter with another device and it is definitely accurate

    works great as my homelab PDU, gives a rough idea of power usage of my rack (its not terribly accurate, but its close enough to say "ok I doubled my power usage" has enough plugs for everything in the rack, cord is of a good length, I'm happy with it and will probably keep it for awhile
