Notes:
1. The customer connector must be IEC 60309-compliant. Power cords that are used with DS8100, DS8300,
DS8700, DS8800, DS8870, and DS8880 cannot be used again with the DS8900F.
2. Power cords without inline connectors are rated at 600 V AC. Other power cords are rated as described in
the table. Single-phase power cord has 2W+G configuration.
3. The conductor size for single-phase power cords is 10 AWG.
4. Power cords that exit the bottom are 4.2 m (14 ft) from the lowest point where they exit the frame to the
mating face of the plug or bare leads. Power cords that exit the top are 1.8 m (6 ft) from the highest point
from the frame to the mating face of the plug or bare leads.
5. The IEC60309 receptacle must be installed in a metal-backed box with the green wire ground-connected to
the grounding lug within the box. Ensure continuity between the box and the metallic shielding of the liquid-
tight conduit.
6. The descriptions indicate the line cord rating and are not an indication of system power rating. The cord
rating defines the maximum breaker rating for the line cord (60A with connector, 63A without connector).
Downstream components are designed for fault currents consistent with facility circuit breaker ratings up to
63A.
Power consumption and environmental information
When you are planning to meet the power requirements for the DS8000 series, consider the power
consumption and other environmental points of the storage system.
Note: The power consumption for the operating disk enclosure is typically 275 watts - 300 watts. The
power consumption for the operating High Performance Flash Enclosure Gen2 is 500 watts.
The power consumption and environmental information for the IBM DS8000 is provided in Table 48 on
page 97.
