Carling Technologies, Inc., one of the world's largest manufacturers of Hydraulic Magnetic and Thermal Circuit Breakers, Electrical Switches and Assemblies, and Advanced Systems including Power Distribution Centers, Digital Switching Systems, and Electronic Controls has released a new product for the Telecom market: The Portable AC Power Distribution Unit.

This new portable PDU adds to Carling's already impressive line of standard and custom AC & DC Power Distribution and Battery Disconnects for the telecom market.

Carling's new Portable AC Power Distribution Unit meets the latest release of IEC60950 and UL 1950 safety standards, requiring listed circuit breakers to protect each receptacle's circuit. The PDU is designed to be mounted inside or outside of electronic equipment racks and enclosures. This revolutionary product utilizes light-weight aluminum materials and features multiple duplex receptacles, a power meter, and new flat style rocker hydraulic/magnetic UL Listed circuit breakers. The Carling flat style rocker actuators reduce the chance for inadvertent actuation or turnoff of the breaker.
