## Long description

Rittal 7979.801 PDU is a compact power distribution unit designed for UK-standard IT environments. It provides six BS1363 AC outlets on a single 230 V, 13 A/3000 W feed and is supplied with a 3 m mains cable. Its housing combines aluminium and plastic in a grey finish, making it suitable for mounting in racks or cabinets where a reliable local power supply for servers, switches or other network devices is required.
Advantages
The unit offers straightforward power distribution for small server and network installations, delivering up to 13 A per feed and support for a total of 3000 W. Its compact aluminium/plastic housing reduces weight while remaining robust for rack use. Inclusion of a 3 m mains cable simplifies installation distance planning, and the six BS1363 outlets match UK plug requirements without the need for adapters.
Suitable for
 Small server racks and network cabinets in UK-standard installations
 Edge or branch data closets where multiple BS1363 outlets are required
 Stand-alone IT equipment such as switches, routers, and small servers
 Temporary or permanent installations that need a compact, six-outlet PDU
When it may not be suitable
This basic PDU does not include advanced management features such as remote monitoring, individual outlet switching, or power metering. It is designed for simple, local distribution rather than for environments that require intelligent power management or remote control.
For installations that need higher currents, three-phase distribution, or specialised outlet types, choose a PDU with the appropriate electrical ratings and connector types.
Key specifications
 Input voltage: 230 V AC nominal
 Rated current: 13 A
 Maximum power: 3000 W
 Number of outlets: 6 × BS1363 (UK)
 Cable length: 3 m mains cable
 Housing material: aluminium and plastic
 Colour: grey
How to use
Mount the PDU in the rack or place it inside the cabinet where the six BS1363 outlets are accessible for the equipment to be powered. Connect the 3 m mains cable to a correctly rated 230 V supply with an appropriate protective device. Distribute connected devices across the outlets, keeping the total load within the 13 A / 3000 W limit. Ensure proper cable management to avoid strain on plugs and to maintain airflow in the rack.
What to consider before purchase
 Confirm that your equipment uses BS1363 (UK) plugs and that a 230 V single-phase supply is available.
 Verify that the combined power draw of connected devices does not exceed 13 A / 3000 W.
 Decide whether remote monitoring or outlet switching is required; this unit provides basic distribution only.
 Check mounting space and cable routing options in your rack or cabinet.
Usage recommendations
For safe operation, distribute high-draw devices across multiple PDUs when possible, use rack-mounted cable management to reduce strain, and ensure the input circuit includes appropriate overcurrent protection rated for the PDU. In environments requiring environmental monitoring or remote control, consider a managed PDU alternative.
