    Learn about the power loading requirements and proper loading sequence for the 7188 or 9188 power distribution unit. The IBM 7188 or 9188 rack-mounted power distribution unit (PDU) contains 12 IEC 320-C13 outlets that are connected to six 20 amps (A) circuit breakers (two outlets per circuit breaker). The PDU employs an inlet current that allows various power cord options that are listed in the following chart.
