Site Preparation -- Circuit Breakers

When you connect the HP NetServer LXr 8500 to an AC power source, the server
temporarily draws a large "inrush current." This occurs even when the system is in
standby mode. Inrush current is much greater than the server's normal operating
needs. Generally, your external AC power source can handle the inrush current.
