Internal maintenance is not an option

has been opened or alterations have been made.

profile is broken.
⇒ Before turning on the PDU for the first time, make sure that it has been allowed to acclimatize to the ambient

PDU if this guideline is not followed.
⇒ Please keep in mind that maximum allowed temperature for a metal enclosure is 70 °C for installation in a normal

How to be sure the status of switchable outlets will not change during firmware
upgrade or restarting of the controller?
There are no extra safety precautions necessary! Because power distribution and the control over measuring and
switching is separated. This means that while updating or restarting the (controller of the) PDUs, power distribution is not
interrupted.
