Abstract
A method of monitoring a power distribution unit () may include providing a power distribution unit frame (), where the power distribution unit frame has a 2U form factor (), and where the power distribution unit frame is coupled to mount in an embedded computer frame (). An alarm module () may be coupled to a circuit breaker connection site () in the power distribution unit frame. The alarm module may detect whether a circuit breaker () is coupled to the circuit breaker connection site via a set of auxiliary contacts (). If the alarm module detects the circuit breaker, the alarm module monitors a set of shelf conditions. If the alarm module fails to detect the circuit breaker, the alarm module does not monitor the set of shelf conditions.
