Max PSU ratings

JinnGonQui

Nerd moment: is the reason why we haven't seen workstation power supplies beyond 1600W …. because it's the max Wattage a standard 15A circuit on a 120VAC system will not trip if the Power Factor of the draw is 90%+ ? (most high-end PSU's rated that high are performing "80+ Titanium": 90%+) ... W/(PF(VAC)=A ... W=Amax(PF(VAC)

We do have them PSUs that go above 1600w. They just max out at 1600w in the US and other places that use 110-115V.

 

Edit: and yes its due to circuit breakers.

When you notice there are more countries with 220V-240V wall outlet voltage than there are 100V-120V...

When you notice there are more countries who use meters. I can't wait for America's downfall just to stop having to know feet and miles.

Power factor can be as high as 98-99%

Titanium/Plantinum can be as high as 94-96% efficient at around 1000-1300w

In US, you are indeed limited by the 15A fuses. On 230v, you can do more.

There's server power supplies that can do 2200-2400w on 230v and 1500-1600w on 110v

 

Here's an example: https://www.bargainhardware.co.uk/dell-g803n-m1000e-chassis-psu-2700w-w31v2

You can see it says there on the right: maximum output power at 100-120v input is 1350w - and at 200-240v is 2700w

When you notice the US is supposed to je using metric at this point
