A 60-amp Power Distribution Unit (PDU) has been developed for Integrity customers that prefer to use
fewer, higher amperage connections into their wall electrical infrastructure. This PDU is sold separately
and can be ordered with any HP Server solution. For more details on PDUs, please refer to the PDU
sales collateral.
The drawing below is an example of how the PDU can be configured with the HP Integrity rx8640 Server
in a dual grid configuration. In this case there are two HP Integrity rx8640 servers (average
configurations drawing ~9 amps each) and two 60-amp PDUs configured with redundant power. The
blue cords represent the primary power connections needed for normal operation. In this example, cords
from each server are plugged into a separate branch circuits. However, it is acceptable, for lower VA
configurations, for each server to plug both grid A cords into one branch circuit and both grid B cords
into second branch circuit. The remaining PDU outlets can be used to power other components as long
as the specifications for the PDU rating are not exceeded.
For redundant power inputs, the second set of red cords is added. If the second PDU is plugged into a
second grid this configuration provides protection against:
Losing power from a single power grid
Accidental tripping of one or two circuit breakers
