While looking at some of our products, you may notice three letters in part of the description: PDU. What does this mean? What do these letters stand for?

PDU stands for “Power Distribution Unit.” A simple way to think about it is a device that is plugged into one outlet that creates multiple more outlets. This way, you can distribute power from one source to many different applications. A power strip in your home or office is a PDU you are all most likely familiar with.

Tune in the coming weeks for a more in-depth look at different applications for PDUs. Next week, we will explain how PDUs benefit contractors and how high amperage outlets can be distributed to your various tools.
