Do you know the required operating voltage and
electric current level of the server and peripherals?
Are enough power outlets provided within 2 meters (6.5
feet) for each rack?
Do the power outlets have appropriate socket
receptacles?
Will optional ground cables be attached to the rack?
Are the circuit breakers for the equipment suitable for
voltage and current-carrying capacities?
Does the power frequency meet the equipment
specifications?
Will system power be delivered from two separate
power 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.
