When preparing your site for installation, allow for the additional inrush current.
Since maximum inrush current for the HP NetServer LXr Pro8 is 80 amps for
more than 10ms, the following circuit breaker recommendations need to be
followed before installing the server in your environment:
• In North American, a 20-amp-minimum circuit is to be used with one
NEMA AB1 class 14B breaker for each 16-amp PDU.
• In Europe:
◊ For a single LXr Pro8 in a rack, use a 15-amp-minimum circuit with
one IEC MCB C-type breaker for each 16-amp PDU.
◊ For multiple LXr Pro8s in a rack, use a 15-amp-minimum circuit with
one IEC MCB D-type breaker for each 16-amp PDU.
Each 16-amp PDU can accommodate a maximum of two HP NetServer
LXr Pro8s.
