Metered PDU for 120V Racks
The APC AP8830 is a 0U vertical power distribution unit built for 100-120V environments. It delivers 1.92 kVA through twenty-four NEMA 5-20R outlets fed by a single NEMA L5-20P inlet. Data-centre operators and IT managers use it to monitor rack-level energy consumption in real time.
Sustained Load Monitoring
Active metering tracks true power draw continuously rather than sampling peak bursts. User-defined alarm thresholds trigger local and remote alerts when current approaches the 20A limit, preventing overloads before breakers trip. Secure Web, SNMP and Telnet interfaces expose utilisation data for long-term capacity planning and load-balancing decisions.
Thermal Port and Low-Profile Breakers
A dedicated temperature and humidity sensor port enables environmental monitoring without extra cabling. Ultra low-profile circuit breakers maintain clearance in dense 0U deployments. The 9.8-foot input cord routes power from floor or overhead sources while the unit itself adds 12.30 lb to the rack.

Questions about this item
How much heat and noise does the AP8830 add when it runs 24/7 in a closed rack?
The metered PDU has no internal fans, so it adds no audible noise; heat contribution is limited to the small loss in its 20 A circuit breakers and 9.8 ft input cord under load.
What must already be in the rack for this unit to install and power on?
A 120 V, 20 A branch circuit terminated in a NEMA L5-20R receptacle, plus vertical 0U mounting space along the rack rails for the 24-outlet chassis.
Will the 1.92 kVA metered input work with legacy 100 V gear still in the cabinet?
Yes — the unit accepts 100–120 V input and feeds 24 NEMA 5-20R outlets, so older 100 V devices drawing within the 20 A limit can connect directly.
