costs in the beginning, but it will cause problems as infrastructure grows. Average-sized wiring can be used with power quality devices, such as UPSs, but not with the electrical infrastructure. In determining the power requirements: • Size electrical infrastructure for maximum-rated consumption - HP Integrity rx7640 | Generic Site Preparation Guide, Fourth Edition - Page 9
the scope of this guide. However, electrical factors relating to power distribution system design and installation must be considered during the site preparation process. The following electrical factors are discussed in this section: • Computer room safety • Power consumption • Electrical load - HP Integrity rx7640 | Generic Site Preparation Guide, Fourth Edition - Page 10
to the HP server hardware, you must consider any peripheral equipment that will be installed during initial installation or a later update.

Chemical contaminant levels in customer environments for HP hardware products must not exceed G1 (mild) levels of Group A chemicals at on the bottom of some raised floor tiles. Although this problem is relatively rare, it can be an issue within your computer - HP Integrity rx7640 | Generic Site Preparation Guide, Fourth Edition - Page 20
HP strongly recommends to test your site for metallic particulate contamination before installing requirements, include the heat generated by lighting and personnel. For example, a person system should be capable of handling any future server expansion. • Air-conditioning equipment air filters should - HP Integrity rx7640 | Generic Site Preparation Guide, Fourth Edition - Page 21
