Middle Atlantic Thin Power Strip Cord 10 Outlet 15 AMP with Local Meter - PDT-1015C-M-NS

Middle Atlantic PDT-1015C-M-NS Thin Vertical Rack Power Strip with Local Meter

Overview

The Middle Atlantic PDT-1015C-M-NS is a thin-profile vertical rack power distribution unit built for 19-inch equipment racks where you need 10 NEMA 5-15R outlets, 15A circuit protection, and a local digital meter showing real-time load — all in a 37.75 x 2.62 x 1.58 in aluminum chassis that won't eat up usable rack space. The 9-foot, 12 AWG power cord gives you enough reach to route cleanly to a floor-level PDU or wall outlet without extension cords, and the heavy-gauge wire handles sustained 15A draw without thermal creep. The integrated digital display lets you verify load at a glance during commissioning or troubleshooting — no remote access or separate metering equipment needed. This unit ships with a 3-Year Limited Warranty from Middle Atlantic.

Compatibility

The PDT-1015C-M-NS mounts in any standard 19-inch open-frame or enclosed rack accepting a 1U vertical rail-mount PDU. It pairs directly with Middle Atlantic rack enclosures and equipment rails across the RK, ERK, and BGR series. The NEMA 5-15R outlets accept standard NEMA 5-15P plugs (15A/120V), making it compatible with NVRs, network switches, access control panels, video encoders, and other rack-mounted security and AV equipment drawing from standard 120V circuits. Not rated for 20A or 240V loads — verify that total connected draw stays within the 15A breaker rating to avoid nuisance trips.

Installation Notes

Mount vertically in the rack using the integrated mounting points on the aluminum chassis. The thin 2.62-inch width allows side-mounting alongside active equipment without blocking front-panel access. Route the 9-ft NEMA 5-15P input cord to a dedicated 15A circuit — do not daisy-chain to another power strip or PDU. Monitor the digital load display during initial power-up to confirm total draw is within the 15A circuit rating; sustained operation above 80% (12A) of rated capacity is not recommended for continuous loads.
