Connecting the HP NetServer to AC Power

When you connect the NetServer to an AC power source, the server temporarily
draws additional current. This occurs even when the system is in standby mode.
This "inrush current" is much greater than the server's normal operating needs.
Generally, your external AC power source can handle the inrush current.
If you install several NetServers on one circuit, precautions are necessary. If there
is a power failure and power is restored, all the servers immediately draw inrush
