Depending on the application, an event PDU can be configured with different input connectors and output combinations, including CEE industrial sockets, PowerCON, Powerlock, stage pin connectors, single-phase outlets, three-phase outlets, and custom cable connections.
Sequential Power-On for Event Equipment
Large event systems can contain multiple groups of equipment, including:
LED screens
Stage lighting
Audio amplifiers
Mixing systems
Video processors
Control systems
Motorized equipment
Catering equipment
Switching all loads on simultaneously can create a significant instantaneous load.
For applications that require controlled startup, the distribution system can incorporate sequential power-on functions.
Instead of energizing every circuit at the same time, selected output groups can be activated according to a predefined sequence.
For example:
Main Power → Control System → Audio System → Lighting → LED Display → Auxiliary Equipment
This approach can help event technicians control startup procedures and avoid unnecessary simultaneous energization of multiple equipment groups.
The actual sequence depends on the electrical architecture and control system specified for the project.

Individual Circuit Breaker Protection
An event power distribution box can provide an independent circuit breaker for each output circuit.
This allows technicians to isolate individual circuits when required.
For example:
| Output Circuit | Application | Protection |
|---|---|---|
| Circuit 1 | Stage Lighting | Independent Breaker |
| Circuit 2 | LED Screen | Independent Breaker |
| Circuit 3 | Audio System | Independent Breaker |
| Circuit 4 | Video Equipment | Independent Breaker |
| Circuit 5 | Catering | Independent Breaker |

FAQ
What is an electrical power distribution box for events?
It is a temporary power distribution unit used to receive electrical power and distribute it to multiple protected output circuits for events, concerts, festivals, exhibitions and live productions.
What is the difference between an event PDU and a rack PDU?
An event PDU is designed for temporary, often high-current power distribution across an event site. A rack PDU is designed to distribute power to IT equipment inside a server rack.
Can each output have an individual circuit breaker?
Yes. An event distribution box can be configured with individual breakers for different output circuits, allowing separate circuit protection and isolation.
Can an event PDU monitor each circuit?
Yes. Depending on the metering architecture, individual output circuits can be equipped with current monitoring and other electrical measurements.
Can an event power distribution box support remote monitoring?
Yes. Intelligent monitoring can be integrated into selected configurations using suitable communication interfaces and monitoring systems.
