Last I checked, PDUs are not sold by watts, but by volts/amps. Sure they are. Doesn't magically turn into power. A/C power consumption is not that easily derived, unlike DC. I'll continue to use the laws of physics. On Thu, May 6, 2021 at 1:41 AM Peter <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you for the clarification.
