PDU Socket Form Factors

PDU (Power Distribution Unit) socket form factors vary based on region, voltage requirements, and equipment compatibility
Notes
Common PDU socket types we are using are IEC C13 (10A, commonly used for IT equipment) and IEC C19 (16A, for high-power servers & networking)
The physical form factors of 63 Amps and 32 Amps PDU sockets are different. The tap-off box of a 63 Amps PDU has an IEC60309 63 Amps Industrial female socket, which is specifically designed to be compatible with a 63 Amps PDU. Similarly, a 32 Amps PDU utilizes a corresponding IEC60309 32 Amps Industrial female socket. These differences ensure that the correct PDU is used for the corresponding power requirements.
