Low Power Products
For lower power products, a
universal receptacle on the rear
panel accepts a wide range of line
cords to meet local regulatory
requirements. Table 2 shows a
range of standard line cords that
Agilent offers, with option numbers
and part numbers.
Part numbers are needed to
order a line cord separately.
For products which use the 900
series line cords, the appropriate
type is automatically selected at
time of shipment, based on the
country to which the product is
being shipped. If you plan to use
your power products in a different
country or region than the country
to which the product is being
shipped, you will need to specify
the appropriate line voltage and
line cord options on your order,
so that we can provide the appro-
priate configuration. Contact
your local Agilent Field Engineer
for assistance.
High Power Products
There are several factors which
limit the amount of power which
can be readily drawn from a nor-
mal branch circuit. For example,
in the U.S., the typical 115/120 Vac
branch circuit has a circuit breaker
rated for 15 A. For industrial appli-
cations, 20 A service is commonly
available. Current draw for an
appliance is further restricted to

80% of the breaker rating unless
the circuit is dedicated to only one
appliance. The line cord can also
represent a limiting factor based
on the wire gauge used. Finally, the
power supply with a rectifier and
capacitive input filter represents a
non-sinusoidal current load. Thus,
the maximum input current drawn
by the power supply is higher than
if the input were a resistive load.
The practical result of this is that
linear power supplies with outputs
over 500 watts and switching
supplies rated over 750 watts will
generally exceed the capability of a
15 A branch circuit. Connecting
power products above these power
levels will require installing either a
higher voltage or higher current ser-
vice. Some practical examples are:
•standard line voltage for 2KW
products such as the 667XA
is 230 Vac; they can not be
powered off a 120 Vac line
•the 1KW 601XA and 603XA
products cannot be powered off
a standard 15 A/120 Vac circuit;
they can operate off a 30 A/
120 Vac service, or they can be
configured for 230 Vac operation
•the 66000A mainframe requires
a 30 A/120 Vac service or 230 Vac
operation; although each module
is 150 watts, the maximum input
current is based on the total
requirement of 8 modules.
