in-cabinet PDU safety regs?
Hi Folks, Do you know of any regulations, standards or publications covering the safe installation and use of the little 1U and 2U PDUs in rack cabinets? My google fu is failing me. All I've found is OSHA 1926.403(i)(1)(i) (https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=STANDARDS&p_id=10704) and I'm not 100% sure it applies. Thanks in advance, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin ................ herrin@dirtside.com bill@herrin.us Owner, Dirtside Systems ......... Web: <http://www.dirtside.com/>
If you are in the US, NFPA 70 article 645 may, or may not, apply. http://www.powercabling.com/documents/NEC645.pdf On Wed, Jul 1, 2015, 12:44 William Herrin <bill@herrin.us> wrote:

I've referenced article 645 before, but you have to look at anything upstream or downstream of the PDU as well, as the system as a whole needs to be within standards. On Wed, Jul 1, 2015 at 11:42 AM, William Herrin <bill@herrin.us> wrote:
