Operation OverviewEaton ePDU G3 Operation Manual P-164000277—Rev 5 37Outlets and Circuit BreakersA variety of outlet types are available for the Eaton ePDUs. Each ePDU model has a specific configuration ofoutlets.The configuration can be standard or customized to suit your needs.The outlets are grouped in sets called sections. Sections are preset groups of individual outlets that you canidentify and monitor through the interfaces that are available with your particular type of ePDU.The outlets are color-coded and labeled, and if the model has circuit breakers, the circuit breakers that areassociated with the outlets have corresponding labels (see Figure 34). (The “circuit breaker tripped” status isnot reported.)Outlets and sections of outlets can be managed through the Web Interface (see “Groups” on page 90,“Outlets” on page 91, and “User-Defined Group Definition” on page 100). You can see measurement readingsusing the local LCD interface.Figure 34. Outlet Groups and Circuit BreakersPorts, Operation Buttons, and LED Status IndicatorsThe Eaton ePDUs include communication and serial ports (also used for environmental sensor monitoring),operation buttons, and status LEDs (see Figure 35). The ePDU front panel includes communication andmonitoring ports, LED status indicators, and operation buttons. The ports and the associated LED indicators aredescribed in the following Table 4.A1 A2 A3 A4 B1 B2 B3 B4 C1 C2 C3 C4 D1 D2 D3 E1 E2 E3 F1 F2 F3CB ACB BCB CCB DCB ECB FA1, A2, A3, A4B1, B2, B3, B4C1, C2, C3, C4D1, D2, D3E1, E2, E3F1, F2, F3NOTE At startup, check the LED status display colors on the communication andmonitoring ports to ensure that they are operating correctly.
