Facility Power Considerations	Yes	No	N/A	Comment
Have the operating voltage and electric current requirements been reviewed? Power requirements listed in "Electrical Power Requirements".
Will single-phase (low-voltage or high-voltage) or 3-phase (low-voltage or high-voltage) power be used?
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?
Are the minimum required power sources available to support the power load for the new hardware? Use kilowatt (kW) /kilovolt (kVA) to express power load.
