30-amp single phase power cords for Europe

Each 30-amp XP12000 disk array cabinet has four power-supply cords. The power
cords included with the unit are type H07RN-F or equivalent with three 6 square mm
conductors.
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect the power cords to the distribution panel as shown in previous
figure. Improper wiring of the neutral conductor may cause damage to the disk array.
To reduce the risk of a wrong connection, use a plug and socket that are approved for
this disk array. It is your electrician's responsibility to select and install the proper plug.
WARNING!
High leakage current can occur between the power supply and the unit. To avoid
electrical shock, be sure to make the protective earth connection before the supply
connections.

Single-phase AC European branch circuit requirements

To protect the disk array, your building must be wired correctly. Each supply ("hot")
conductor must be protected by a short-circuit protective device and by an overcurrent
protective device. The tables listed under the "AC line voltage requirements" heading
provide specifications for the overcurrent protective devices required for single-phase
operation. All protective devices must comply with national standards of the country
where the units are to be installed. If a protective device interrupts any supply conductor,
it must also interrupt all other supply conductors.
Overcurrent protection is also required for the neutral conductor.
In many cases, local codes do not allow a branch circuit fitted with a 50-amp receptacle
or connector to be protected by an overcurrent-protection device with a rating lower than
50 amps. You can order an XP12000 disk array with the 30-amp power option to
comply with these local codes. Your electrician knows the appropriate code requirements
for your location/site.
