i have the same problem so i bought a couple of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017EUTHC0
ended up only needing 1 though because they are like 1.5" long and just one helped the insignia clear the brackets.
It can be used but, you'll need to change/adapt the plug.
The PDU you linked to comes with a NEMA 5-20P plug. It has a sideways blade and will not fit a standard household 15 amp receptacle(NEMA 5/15R). So by default, you won;t be able to plug in the PDU at home.
But, you can get an adapter such as this one that will allow you to plug in the PDU.
Plugging the PDU into a 15 amp receptacle will prevent you from drawing more than 15 amps. The breaker will pop. But, up to ~15 amps, everything should be fine.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017EUTHC0/ Is this the correct adapter?
I bought this one from Amazon AC WORKS [XH515520] 15 Amp Household Plug to 20 Amp T-Blade Female Adapter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017EUTHC0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_3v0xDbC5EHARE but it did not work cause the adapter seems to be different way. I rent an apartment that comes with this air condition and have this connector but I can connect it to my standard plate.
