  • Hardwired connections suit permanent rack or wall installations

Purpose and Audience

The Liebert MP2-130HW MicroPOD is a 24 A maintenance bypass switch designed for hardwired UPS installations. It allows technicians to service or replace the UPS without interrupting power to connected critical loads. This accessory suits facility managers and IT teams responsible for continuous uptime in server rooms or network closets. It is not for buyers who need plug-and-play receptacles or portable power distribution.

Critical Specification

The unit operates with an input voltage of 110 V AC and delivers an output voltage of 120 V AC at a frequency of 50 Hz. It supports a total current draw per phase of 24 A and features a switching time of 6 ms using an open transition switch type. Surge protection is integrated and all connections are hardwired.

Bundled Impact

The product is supplied as a standalone switch module without additional cables, software or mounting hardware. Installers must provide suitable conduit, wiring and overcurrent protection to match the 24 A rating. No configuration utility or monitoring software is included, so integration relies entirely on the existing UPS management infrastructure.

Questions about this item

What does the 24 A current rating mean when the MicroPOD is installed in my UPS circuit?

It allows the bypass switch to carry up to 24 amperes per phase continuously, so connected loads drawing up to that level stay powered during UPS maintenance.

How does the hardwired interface and open-transition switching affect my installation?

The unit has no plug or receptacle; conductors are landed directly on terminals, and the 6 ms open-transition break transfers load between UPS and bypass without overlap.

What physical provision is needed to mount and wire this 130 model bypass switch?

It is designed for hardwired connection, so you need a suitable enclosure or panel space with cable entries for the incoming and outgoing AC conductors.
