Overview

Receptacle Box

The receptacle box houses and protects the electrical device and its wiring.
NEMA style boxes are offered in either weatherproof (cast) or 1900 options.
NEMA style boxes are offered in eleven colors in addition to the unpainted version.
IEC309 (Pin & Sleeve) receptacles are also available in a back-box version for mounting to underfloor supports and structure.
The number and size of conductors may dictate a deeper box.
Unsure what type of box you want, ask anyone of our sales associates, and they’ll help you decide what is best for your application.

Conduit

Liquid Tight Flexible Metal Conduit LFMC (shown) is the most common conduit used in the manufacture of branch circuit power distribution cables, and PDU Cables offers its LFMC in eleven standard colors to help organize and manage dual power feeds. Liquid tight flexible metal conduit jacketing material is a high quality, rugged, flame retardant flexible PVC compound which resists oil, mild acids and exposure to sunlight and offers outstanding protection in wet and oily conditions.
For those who prefer Greenfield, PDU Cables will readily substitute either reduced wall aluminum or reduced wall steel flexible metal conduit. While permitted for use in ITE raised floor environments (NEC 645), it is not suitable in damp or wet conditions.

Receptacle Device

The power demands of the computer equipment being fed will determine the power capacity supplied by the electrical device chosen. Our standard devices options can handle from 15 to 100 AMP and 120-600 Volts. Choice of receptacles include: NEMA Straight Blade, NEMA Locking Blade, RussellStoll and IEC 309 (Pin & Sleeve) style devices. Available as single or multi-circuit options, including multi-box closed nipple or daisy chain. Each wiring device is UL Listed and 100% pre-tested prior to shipment

Connector

A machined steel connector is attached to each end of the conduit with a torque wrench for maximum connectivity and maximum security. The connector is then securely attached to the threaded end of the receptacle box.

Label

Each PDU Cable power cable assembly includes a cable identification label referencing the circuit number, equipment, PDU panel, receptacle and cable length, as well as the UL certification. This allows for easier on-site installation and for quicker isolation of cables if you need to shut equipment down. It is standard for labels to be applied at each end of the cable and secured with heat shrink tubing to prevent accidental removal or alteration, with the option of having additional unique identification labels applied to receptacle boxes and faceplates at the data center’s discretion.

Conductor Wire Tails

PDU Cables branch circuit power cable assemblies come with a standard 8’ wire tail. Longer tails are available when wiring to tall RPP units or connecting to a cable trough.
