Operation
1. Powering Equipment On/Off
Each of the eight outlets on the rear panel is controlled by a corresponding lighted switch on the front panel. To supply power to a connected device, flip its respective switch to the "ON" (up) position. The switch will illuminate red when power is active. To cut power, flip the switch to the "OFF" (down) position.

2. Circuit Breaker
The PC-100A is equipped with a 15-Amp resettable circuit breaker located on the front panel. This breaker protects the unit and connected equipment from overcurrent conditions. If the total current draw exceeds 15 Amps, the circuit breaker will trip, cutting power to all outlets.
To reset the circuit breaker:
- Disconnect some of the connected equipment to reduce the load.
- Press the circuit breaker button firmly to reset it.
- If the breaker trips repeatedly, investigate the connected equipment for faults or reduce the total load.
