Power consumption and cooling Introduction This document presents power consumption and cooling considerations and limitations when using a 1050W 80 Plus power supply in an HP workstation in a typical office environment. Power consumption and cooling considerations An HP workstation with a 1050W 80 Plus power supply might require more power than the typical office environment can supply. Consider the following issues: ● A fully loaded configuration might draw up to 15 amps of 110-volt power, leaving no power for other accessories. A typical office has one, or maybe two, 15-amp circuits. ● An office air conditioning system must accommodate the extra heat generated by fully-loaded workstation configurations. ● Some environments might have power conditioning problems that prevent the reliable use of high end workstation configurations.

Power consumption and cooling considerations
An HP workstation with a 1050W 80 Plus power supply might require more power than the typical office
environment can supply. Consider the following issues:
A fully loaded configuration might draw up to 15 amps of 110-volt power, leaving no power for other
accessories. A typical office has one, or maybe two, 15-amp circuits.
An office air conditioning system must accommodate the extra heat generated by fully-loaded
workstation configurations.
Some environments might have power conditioning problems that prevent the reliable use of high
