  •  is compatible with any 120V, 60 Hz, 20-AMP system.
  •  comes with two 20-AMP ground fault circuit interrupter receptacles and circuit breaker protection against overload and overcurrent conditions.
  •  is a compact size (15.3-inches x 14-inches x 14-inches) with an 8-inch reel for wrapping the 50-ft quick disconnect power cord for convenient transportability and stowing.
  •  has a quick disconnect power cord that comes with a pigtail on one end that allows for easy setup, connecting directly to the 3-kW TQG load terminals.
  •  can be set up and operated by any MOS.
You can download the PDU’s TM 9-6150-267-13&P (Mar 24), including RSPTL, HERE (CAC required).
