Ok I need some of the following plugs available - number 3 in the pic below @ 32a.

What's the quickest & easiest way of doing this? My techs are telling me re-wiring blah blah blah.... Is there a quick & easy way to get them even if it's temporary? I'd even hire a bloody generator if I have too grin.gif

My suggestion of chopping the end off of existing plugs was met with some very blank stares grin.gif

HELP!

They're for HP BladeCentres by the way.

Depends I would say. But you are probably right. The Blades must be able to take full population and in rush current at start-up. Under normal operations it will probably be a lot less. Just watch out if things go through a UPS. If so breakers will need to be class C rather than normal B because of the intial surge

1 and 2 i havent seen before.

3 is a 16 amp single phase 240v plug.

4 is a 16 amp (or 32 if its slightly bigger) 3 phase 415v plug.

Latter will be stamped on both the plug and socket as to wether its 16A or 32A

No 4 is a 3ph & neutral, slight difference :-)

No 3 loogs like a 16A single phase, but will you need the female part?

4. Ok, maybe i should have been a bit clearer for the Non electricians out there.( you ask a sparky for one of those, he will just get you a " 3phase 16amp plug" ) the rest is obvious, well to a sparky it would be.

To be clearer, all the red plugs come with the neutral pin, ie 3phase, neutral and of coures earth. If you dont need a neutral, you dont wire it.

3. is definitly a 32A single phase 240V plug.

<font color="red"> Just Re-read macs post, no,3 is marked as 32A so that solves that. </font>

Check the red plugs mac, for similar Identification for Ampage. 169144-ok.gif

Mac, What supplies you already have in the room, will dictate , wether you can use existing, or get somone in to install switchgear/sockets to your requirements.

Ok, here you are:

This is a 16A 240v plug

This is a 32A 240v plug

So you really need to go on what is stamped on the plug.
