1# Power Feed 2 3A power feed represents the distribution of power from a power panel to a particular device, typically a power distribution unit (PDU). The power port (inlet) on a device can be connected via a cable to a power feed. A power feed may optionally be assigned to a rack to allow more easily tracking the distribution of power among racks. 4 5Each power feed is assigned an operational type (primary or redundant) and one of the following statuses: 6 7* Offline 8* Active 9* Planned 10* Failed 11 12Each power feed also defines the electrical characteristics of the circuit which it represents. These include the following: 13 14* Supply type (AC or DC) 15* Phase (single or three-phase) 16* Voltage 17* Amperage 18* Maximum utilization (percentage) 19 20!!! info 21 The power utilization of a rack is calculated when one or more power feeds are assigned to the rack and connected to devices that draw power. 22
