User Service Guide, Fifth Edition - HP Integrity rx8640 SEU
NOTE: These procedures must be performed for each power cord that will be plugged directly
into the back of the SEU. If the expected results from this procedure are not observed during the
voltage check, refer to the next section titled “Voltage Check (Additional Procedure).”
Voltage Range Verification of Receptacle
This measures the voltage between L1 and L2, L1 to ground, and L2 to ground. Three separate
measurements are performed during this procedure. Refer to Figure 3-19 for voltage reference
points when performing the following measurements.
Figure 3-19 Voltage Reference Points for IEC 320 C19 Plug
IMPORTANT: These measurements must be performed for every power cord that plugs into
the SEU.
1. Measure the voltage between L1 and L2. This is considered to be a phase-to-phase
measurement in North America. In Europe and certain parts of Asia-Pacific, this measurement
is referred to as a phase-to-neutral measurement. The expected voltage measured should
be between 200–240V AC regardless of the geographic region.
2. Measure the voltage between L1 and ground. In North America, verify this voltage is between
100–120V AC. In Europe and certain parts of Asia-Pacific, verify this voltage is between
200–240V AC.
3. Measure the voltage between L2 and ground. In North America, verify this voltage is between
100–120V AC. In Europe and certain parts of Asia-Pacific, verify this voltage is 0 (zero) V
AC.
Table 3-2 provides single phase voltage measurement examples dependent on the geographic
region where these measurements are taken.
