I have 6 servers running single phase 120V power. Each server draws 700W as measured at the plug, for a total circuit load of 4200W.

We are converting over to 3-phase 208 power (through a PDU), and I need to calculate the correct 3-phase 208V amperage for this load to right-size the breaker in the new 3-phase panel.

What does the equation look like to do this calculation?

Thanks,

Tim

The measured load has nothing to do with it at all.

Please hire a qualified engineer or electrician to do the calculations for you.
