Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation and operation of all Tripp Lite
Power Conditioning Centers. Failure to heed these warnings will void your warranty.
• The Power Conditioning Center features an internal protection that will disconnect the surge-protective component at the
end of its useful life but will maintain power to the load—now unprotected.
• Do not connect the Power Conditioning Center to an ungrounded outlet. Do not use with 2-wire extension cords or
adapters. Do not plug extension cords into the Power Conditioning Center.
• The Power Conditioning Center is designed for indoor use only. Install the Power Conditioning Center away from heat-
emitting appliances such as radiators or heat registers. Do not install where excessive moisture is present.
• Never install electrical wiring during a lightning storm.
• Do not drill into any part of the housing or open the housing for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Switch & Cord Panel Outlet Panel
Switch & Cord Panel
Detachable Power Cord with Right-Angle Plug: connects the Power Conditioning Center to a standard 3-wire
grounded 120V AC 60Hz wall outlet. Detachable cord simplifies installation; right-angle plug permits equipment and
furniture to be placed flush against the wall.
Circuit Breaker: protects against dangerous system overload. If the total load on the Power Conditioning Center’s
outlets exceeds 12 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and power will be turned off at the outlets. Reduce the load by
unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to restore power.
Remote AC/DC Control Jack: allows remote on/off control when connected to an external component's “AC/DC Out”
jack with user-supplied cable. The Power Conditioning Center's Power Switch must be set to “OFF” for the remote
control function to work. The connected external component's remote control output voltage should be between 3V and
30V AC or DC.
Illuminated Power Switch: turns power on and off at the outlets.
Mounting Flange: allows for secure mounting (with user-supplied screws) on any suitable surface, including on a wall
behind a flat panel TV screen. The user must determine the fitness of the mounting surface and the user-supplied screws
prior to installation.
Outlet Panel
“HDTV” Outlet: protects any flat panel TV (plasma, LCD or HDTV) against surge damage and line noise distortion on
the AC line. Turn power on and off at this outlet with the Power Switch.
“ACCESSORY” Outlet: protects any accessory (receiver, player, etc.) against surge damage and line noise distortion
on the AC line. Turn power on and off at this outlet with the Power Switch.
“LINE OK” LED: indicates that nominal AC power is present with no wiring faults detected. When this LED is
illuminated, AC power is safe for connected equipment.
