The C12 is a twelve-channel power distribution unit suited for a wide range of applications and purposes that need intelligent and reliable power delivered without interruption. Included in a very compact form-factor are superior 2-pole hydraulic-magnetic breakers, individual earth protection per channel, loss of neutral protection, emergency stop, a disconnectable power-cable and a single-phase convenience socket that can be adapted for different markets.

The C12 has a unique real-time load monitoring system that clearly displays what’s going on for each individual channel. The LED indicator signals green under normal load conditions and signals red when an overload occurs. The load sensor can register loads as small as approximately 5 watts.

The optional webserver and processing card give the C12 the ability to be remotely monitored on any device with a web-browser on any standard network. Main meter measurement, breaker status, neutral error status and temperature can all be streamed in real time along with the current for all individual channels. Units, cables and channels can be named and color-coded, notifications can warn you if something is out of expected range.

The C12 can be combined with other Stage Smarts products seamlessly and integrates perfectly into bigger systems.

A truly flexible and innovative product that gives you features never seen in a power distro of this size.


Hydraulic-magnetic RCBOs

Superior internal design handles inrush and leakage currents without “nuisance tripping”. Individual earth-leakage protection on every channel and consistent protection at any operating temperature makes these breakers ideal for the complex loads encountered in demanding event and stage applications.

Loss of neutral protection

The loss of the neutral connection can cause over-voltages that will seriously damage your connected equipment. Our power distribution units are fitted with a proprietary protection system that shuts the unit down instantly in case of a failed or disconnected neutral connection.

Load monitoring

Real time load monitoring on all channels with clear status indication makes lost loads, overloads and disconnected cables easy to find and correct. We also offer comprehensive monitoring of all voltages and currents, power consumption, power factor and more.

Remote supervision

An optional internal webserver can be fitted and enables you to remotely supervise and manage your units from a standard web browser on any platform. Real time streamed data includes voltages, main currents, channel loads, unit temperature and more. Units, cables and channels can be named and color coded. Several units can be supervised thru a single unified interface over a standard network.
