Power Distribution Unit PDU ShiverPeaks BS60317

The ShiverPeaks BS60317 Power Distribution Unit (PDU) provides four AC outlets in a compact, durable aluminum housing finished in black. Designed for environments where reliable mains distribution is required, this PDU accepts a nominal input voltage of 230 V and supports a maximum current of 16 A, delivering up to 3680 W of power through its 1.5 m cable. The unit is certified by TÜV GS and manufactured to BS60317 standards to ensure safe operation and compatibility with common European mains systems.

Advantages

The PDU combines a lightweight but sturdy aluminum enclosure with a space-saving footprint and a 1.5 m cable that simplifies placement near equipment racks or workstations. Four AC outlets allow connection of multiple devices without adding extension leads, while the 16 A rating and 3680 W maximum power ensure sufficient capacity for typical office and home electronics. TÜV GS certification and BS60317 compliance provide verified safety and quality assurance for continuous use.

Suitable for

• Distributing mains power to office equipment such as monitors, printers and routers
• Providing safe power for home entertainment systems and small AV setups
• Temporary power distribution at workshops, test benches and lab desks
• Use in server rooms or network cabinets with space constraints where a compact PDU is required

How to use

Place the PDU on a stable surface or mount it according to the available mounting options near the equipment to be powered. Connect the PDU's mains plug to a properly rated 230 V outlet. Plug devices into the four AC outlets, ensuring the combined power draw does not exceed 3680 W or the 16 A current rating. Avoid overloading by checking the power requirements of connected equipment and distribute high-draw devices across separate outlets where practical.

Recommendations

For safe and reliable operation, use the PDU indoors in dry, ventilated environments and avoid exposure to liquids. Periodically inspect the cable and housing for damage; if any defects are found, discontinue use until repaired or replaced. Ensure connected devices and the supply circuit match the PDU's 230 V, 16 A rating and consult a qualified electrician for permanent installations or where local regulations require professional wiring.
