Power distribution units in this range take a single high-current feed, typically via Powerlock connectors rated at 250 A or 400 A, and split it into a mix of outputs such as 125 A, 63 A, 32 A, 16 A and 10 A, including three-phase and single-phase (Schuko) options. Units such as the Avolite ART 2000 combine metering and breaker protection with the distribution outlets, suitable for splitting a main supply into workable circuits.
These PDUs serve productions and installations where a large incoming supply, from a generator or venue tie-in, needs to be broken down for stage, lighting, sound or studio equipment. They are used in touring, broadcast and live event setups where multiple smaller loads must be fed safely and reliably from one high-amperage source.
