Power Up the Server
This procedure describes how to apply AC power and power up the server (refer to Figure 29).
Before proceeding, be sure you are thoroughly familiar with the “Before You Begin” information at
the front of this guide.
WARNING
Carefully check the AC power cord. If it is not the exact type required
in the region where the server will be installed and used, replace the
cord with the correct type. Refer to the following “Power Cord
Requirements” for a detailed power cord description.

Power Cord Requirements

Rating: Power cords must be rated for available AC voltage and have a current rating at least
125% of the server current rating. (Refer to the Intel ISP1100 Internet Server Technical Product
Specification included on the CD-ROM shipped with the server for power requirement
information.)
Connector, wall outlet end: Power cords must be terminated in a grounding-type male plug
designed for use in your region. Cords must have certification marks showing certification by an
agency that is acceptable in your region.
Connector, power supply end: The connector that plugs into the AC receptacle on the server
power supply must be an IEC 320, sheet C13, type female connector.
Cord length and flexibility: Power cord length must be 4.5 meters (14.76 feet) or less and
composed of flexible (harmonized <HAR>) cord or VDE-certified cordage to comply with server
safety certifications.
NOTE
In geographic regions that are susceptible to electrical storms, it is
recommended that you plug the server into an AC surge suppressor.
