The following table lists the specifications for single-phase power distribution units (PDUs) in various countries:
| Single-phase PDUs | North America, South America, Japan, and Taiwan | EMEA |
|---|---|---|
| Rack location | Vertical rack-mounted PDUs that occupy no rack unit (RU) space. | Vertical rack-mounted PDUs that occupy no rack unit (RU) space. |
| Inlet circuits | Each PDU has two 30A (de-rated to 24A) inlet circuits. The inlet plug style is NEMA L6-30. | Each PDU has two 25A inlet circuits. The inlet plug style is IEC309. |
| AC voltage | Each PDU supports AC voltage levels 200 – 240VAC at 50/60Hz. | Each PDU supports AC voltage levels from 200 – 240VAC at 50/60Hz. |
| Power | Each PDU can supply 10KW of power when both power cables are connected. | Each PDU can supply 10KW of power when both power cables are connected. |
| Outlet groups | All PDUs have 42 outlets arranged in six groups of seven outlets. | All PDUs have 42 outlets arranged in six groups of seven outlets. |
| Receptacles | All 42 outlets are IEC60320 C13 style receptacles. The C13 receptacle can supply 10A. Note: If two outlets are configured to draw 10A each, the remaining five outlets in the group cannot be used.
