Planning the Server Installation Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations governing the installation of information technology equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product rating label or the user documentation supplied with that option. When installing more than one server, you may need to use additional power distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices. • The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch circuits. • The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit AC current rating in your facility. • Using common power outlet strips for this equipment is not recommended. • Provide a separate electrical circuit for the server. NOTE: Power strips are not recommended for optimal power distribution and safety. Electrical Grounding Requirements WARNING: This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded AC outlet. The grounding type plug is an important safety feature. To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage to the equipment, do not disable the grounding feature on the plug. The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety. In the United States, you must install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code), Article 250, as well as any local and regional building codes. In Canada, the equipment must be installed in accordance with Canadian Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries, the installation must follow any regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Code 364, parts 1 through 7. Furthermore, you must be sure that all power distribution devices used in the installation, such as branch wiring and receptacles, are listed or certified groundingtype devices. 2-6 HP ProLiant ML370 Generation 3 Server Setup and Installation Guide

HP ProLiant ML370 Generation 3 Server Setup and Installation Guide
Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical
regulations governing the installation of information technology equipment by
licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered
by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for
Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For electrical power
ratings on options, refer to the product rating label or the user documentation
supplied with that option.
When installing more than one server, you may need to use additional power
distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices.
The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch circuits.
The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the branch
circuit AC current rating in your facility.
Using common power outlet strips for this equipment is not recommended.
Provide a separate electrical circuit for the server.

Electrical Grounding Requirements
WARNING:
This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded AC
outlet. The grounding type plug is an important safety feature. To reduce the
risk of electrical shock or damage to the equipment, do not disable the
grounding feature on the plug.
The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety. In the United
States, you must install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70, 1999 Edition
(National Electric Code), Article 250, as well as any local and regional building
codes. In Canada, the equipment must be installed in accordance with Canadian
Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries,
the installation must follow any regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as
the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Code 364, parts 1 through 7.
Furthermore, you must be sure that all power distribution devices used in the
installation, such as branch wiring and receptacles, are listed or certified grounding-
type devices.
