Example of PDU Usage Calculation
Rack Configuration Planning 5-5
In the calculations in Table 5-4 , components were added one by one, calculating:

The total current demanded by the components

The total space used in the rack

The total number of outlets required
In this example, two PDUs can provide enough current for two ftServer 2900 systems,
one tape drive (typical), and one ftScalable Storage G3 system. This set of
components consumes 12.48 amperes; adding another CPU-I/O enclosure would
increase the consumption to 17.28 amperes, which exceeds the 15 amperes limit for
the PDUs. The configuration also utilizes four outlets in the A-side PDU and 14U of rack
space.
To add any more components, you require another pair of PDUs.
