We placed a PO for SY32K48H-PD we are expecting shipment to arrive soon.
There's no complete information available about which PDU is included with this UPS or any specification at all regarding Power Modules connector sizes, brakers, cable length etc.
From some powerpoint I figured out it includes a 5U rack mount PD unit. But the question still remains: What Power distribution modules come with this PDU (or UPS)?. In the packing list there's no reference to a rackmount PDU so I suppose it comes included in the UPS frame already mounted.
Can someone please shed some light to this?
Thanks in advance.

When you say switchgear I have to assume you don't mean the actual switchgear of the UPS which is included. The UPS switch gear is the Q1, Q2, Q3 breakers which are below the power modules.
For power distribution(what I believer you are refering to as switch gear) you would have to order whatever modular PDU breaker/whip combo's that you need for your data center specifications. It wouldn't make any sense to just include 6 standard 20A 15ft whips with every unit because everyone's data center is different.

I will be checking with the three phase power team regarding this question and either they or myself will respond shortly.

The output can be hardwired to a building power panel or you can install up to six of the modular breakers/whips into the built in distribution panel. A list of breaker options can be found here:

I'm a little surprised because as far as I know, the 48k all-in-one has switchgear built-in right below the power modules. Could you point me to the schematic with the note that says it's not included?

Thanks. This matter brought many headaches this last week, mainly because APC US, and APC Argentina told us the UPS Distribution Panel in the UPS included the switchgear.
This product is advertised by APC in many presentations appearing as if it includes de Power Module Distribution Switchgear.
Well, it doesn't. This should be stated very clear when buying this kind of UPS System. After looking deep into schematics I've found a little note stating that this parts where not included.
So in conclusion if it helps for someone:
If you buy SY32K48H-PD it won't include any PM Switchgear. The only way you would have them shipped for sure is if you used the BOT for ISX Design.
