30A 1U rackmount PDU
The Tripp Lite PDU2430 is a basic power distribution unit rated for 120 volts and 30 amps of single-phase input. It fits a standard 19-inch rack using only 1U of space and provides 24 NEMA 5-15R outlets split evenly between the front and rear panels. A 15-foot cord with an L5-30P plug connects the unit to the upstream supply.
Replaces basic strips without breakers
This unit upgrades installations that rely on unprotected power strips by adding dual 15-amp circuit breakers and a switchless design that prevents accidental shutdowns. The jump is worth it when rack density requires 24 outlets in a single 1U enclosure and when generator or alternate-waveform UPS power must pass through unfiltered. Builders who need switched outlets or remote monitoring cannot meet that need with this model.
Limited to 120V 30A single-phase input
The L5-30P inlet and 30-amp breaker pair cap total draw at 2.9 kilowatts on a 120-volt, 50/60-hertz service. No internal metering or network interface exists, so load visibility requires external tools. The 15-foot cord fixes the distance to the source receptacle, and the 5-15R outlets accept only standard North American plugs.

Questions about this item
What rack depth and width does the 1U PDU2430 require?
The unit measures 1.75 inches high, 17.5 inches wide and 4.5 inches deep, fitting any standard 19-inch rack with at least 4.5 inches of usable depth.
How do I mount the PDU2430 and which step is often missed?
Remove the detachable flanges, choose 1U or 0U orientation, then bolt the flanges to the rack rails; the step often missed is re-attaching the flanges to the chassis before tightening the rack screws.
When should the dual 15A circuit breakers be replaced?
Replace a breaker only after it has tripped repeatedly under normal 30A total load, indicating the internal thermal element has fatigued.
