Complete the following checklist to ensure that the facility power requirements are met. For information about power requirements, see Electrical Power Requirements.
Facility Power Considerations | Yes | No | N/A | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
Do you know the required operating voltage and electric current level of the device and peripherals? |
||||
Will you be using single-phase (low-voltage or high-voltage) or 3-phase (low-voltage or high-voltage) power? |
||||
Are enough power outlets provided within 2 meters for each rack? |
||||
Do the power outlets have appropriate socket receptacles for the PDU option ordered? Options are low voltage or high voltage, single-phase or 3-phase. |
||||
Will optional ground cables be attached to the rack? |
||||
Are the circuit breakers for the equipment suitable in terms of voltage and current-carrying capacities? |
||||
Does the power frequency meet the equipment specifications? |
||||
Are power outlets available for the new equipment at the designated location? |
||||
Will system power be delivered from two separate grids? |
||||
Is there a UPS to power the equipment? |
||||
Do you have the minimum required power sources to support the power load for the new hardware? Use kilowatt (kW) /kilovolt (kVA) to express power load. |
