  • How to calculate power for colocation?

Posted By: Nicholas | 1 Replies | Last Reply On: Jul 26, 2018 23:26:50

Just wondering how do I go about calculating power for colocation?  is there a calculator for power?  I plan to start offer with just quarter cab and scale from there.

Power which is often called as Watts is calculated in following way

 

Watts = Volts x Amps

 

At all our Data Centers we deploy a 20A/120V circuit, that's 2400watts of pure power.

 

Depending on your specific power requirements, we offer a variety of circuit capacities:

20A/120V | 30A/120V | 20A/208V | 30A/208V

However, 80 % of the power is usable and rest 20% is reserve. For example, a 20A/120V circuit provides 16A of usable power.

A quarter cab is a good start and you can figure out how many servers you can safely plug into that strip.

 

We offer colocation service at all our Data Centers spread across 4 continents. To know more about the offered location, please visit https://www.psychz.net/colocation.html#

 

To know more, Kindly write to our sales for further assistance on your order   https://www.psychz.net/dedicated-hosting.html#Quote or sales@psychz.net
