Leviton P1020-12S 120V15A 5-15 Horizontal Power Distribution Unit

Power Your Rack Equipment Reliably with the Leviton P1020-12S PDU

The Leviton P1020-12S is a 120V, 15A horizontal power distribution unit (PDU) from Leviton designed for rack-mounted electronics and network equipment. It is suitable for data closets, server racks and AV equipment racks. Key features include ten outlets on a single strip and UL listing for Canada and the US.

Key Features and Benefits of This Power Distribution Unit

Ten 5-15R outlets on one 17.5-inch strip let installers power multiple rack devices without daisy-chaining separate power bars, cutting cable clutter inside the enclosure. The low-profile 1.75-inch depth fits standard rack cabinets, and UL listing confirms it meets recognized North American electrical safety standards.

Where to Use the P1020-12S Power Distribution Unit

Best suited to server rooms, network cabinets, AV racks and telecom closets where several 120V devices need centralized power in one enclosure. It is rated for 15A at 120V, so it is not intended for higher-draw industrial equipment or 240V circuits.

Installation and Compatibility Checks

Designed for horizontal rack mounting, it requires standard rack hardware and a dedicated 120V, 15A circuit with a 5-15P plug connection. Confirm total connected load stays under the 15A rating before combining multiple rack devices on the same strip.

Additional Buying Context

Because it is UL listed for use in both Canada and the US, it is a straightforward option for replacing an older or unlisted power strip in commercial rack installations where electrical code compliance matters.
