Enclosures that use 3-phase power can provide several advantages: • More efficient power distribution. Delivering higher voltage 3-phase power to the enclosure results in less power loss during the transmission process. • Elimination of PDUs. The AC Input Module of a 3-phase c7000 enclosure hooks directly to 3-phase power. • Simpler wiring. Enclosures that use 3-phase power require only two cords connecting to the enclosure to support six modular power supplies rather than six cords coming from a PDU. Distributing 3-phase power to the enclosure There are two 3-phase feeds for the c7000 enclosure. They are marked on the input module as A and B, respectively. Feed A supplies power supplies 1, 2, and 3 while feed B supplies power supplies 4, 5, and 6. As with all ProLiant servers that use AC power, the power supplies themselves use single phase current. Figure 2-1 illustrates that with the 3-phase c7000 enclosure, each power supply is connected to a single phase of the 208V (North America) or 230V (International) 3-phase feed. 3
