Rackplus 13 Amp and IEC Range of Power Distribution Units

Once an overall current draw has been calculated the client can decide on which socket is required. The number of sockets is dependent upon the amount of equipment which is to be mounted on the rack. For example if there are 10 servers, then a minimum of 10 outlets will be required, but more often than not the amount of sockets required will be double the amount of servers. Options include 10, 12 and 16 gang 13A switch left or right handed horizontal or vertical units and 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 20 and 24 gang IEC switches.
