NOTE: See the specific server service guide for the guidelines required to support the specific server. The following information provides general principles and practices to consider before installing or operating the system. These guidelines apply to all customer environments that an HP product is - HP rp3440 | Generic Site Preparation Guide, Fourth Edition - Page 8
-level or system-level UPS. UPSs that are compatible with present-day technology generally use pulse width modulation (PWM) and have ratings that are appropriate for a nonlinear load.

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 rp3440 | 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.
