Tripp Lite Metered PDU, Auto-Transfer Switch (ATS), 20A, 200-240V, 3.8kW, Single-Phase
Single-corded network gear in an equipment rack often lacks redundant power paths. We build this transfer switch unit to accept dual separate input sources, monitoring line quality and flipping over to the backup feed if the primary drops. A front digital meter displays total connected draw in real time.

- SINGLE-PHASE ATS PDU DISTRIBUTES AND MONITORS POWER: ATS PDU allows real-time local current monitoring to prevent circuit overloads and enables redundant power for non-redundant network devices. Features eight C13 and two C19 200–240V outlets distribute AC power to connected equipment.
- SWITCH FROM PRIMARY TO SECONDARY POWER SOURCE IN MILLISECONDS: Automatic transfer switching (ATS) switches to the secondary source within 2–5 milliseconds if the primary source becomes unstable. ATS processor constantly evaluates the power quality of both input sources.
- DIGITAL LOAD METER: Reports the total load for all connected equipment. Ensure load levels remain below maximum capacity to avoid costly downtime or damaged equipment.
- TAA-COMPLIANT FOR GOVERNMENT PURCHASES: Compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
- RELIABLE PRODUCT FULLY BACKED AND SUPPORTED: This product is covered by a 2-Year Limited Warranty and is supported by Tripp Lite's Chicago-based expert technical support team over phone and email.
How this one is built
Automatic transfer switching
The internal switch monitors power quality on both input sources simultaneously. If the primary feed becomes unstable or drops, it transfers the load to the secondary input feed quickly without dropping connected network devices.
Digital current display
A digital load meter on the front panel reads out total amperage drawn across all connected outlets. Techs can check current draw directly at the cabinet rails before plugging in more equipment.
Dual input feeds
Two separate input cords plug into isolated AC utility or backup battery sources. The housing mounts horizontally between the rails to route power across a row of rear outlets for nearby switches and servers.
Federal procurement standard
We build this hardware to meet Federal Trade Agreements Act requirements. That makes the unit eligible for General Services Administration schedule orders and government contracting.
