1. Add together the values from the bottom lines of Tables 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3, subtract
the storage enclosure total from Table 2-2, and enter the value in the Total Watts
column of Table 2-4.
2. Multiply the value in the Total Watts column by 3.41, and enter the number of BTUs
in the BTUs/hr. Subtotal column.
AC Power Outlet Requirements
If you do use a pair of PDUs in the cabinet, use Tables 2-5 and 2-6 to determine the
total number of power outlets required outside the cabinet.
1. In the Quantity column, write the number of each type of component.
2. Multiply the value in the Quantity column by the value in the Outlets column, and
enter the total in the Subtotal column.
3. Add the values in the Subtotal column and enter the sum on the bottom line.
