240v Server PSU cables question

Correct.

 

So I have couple spare 240V AC outlets ( which I believe is 6-15 type)  that I am not utilizing. I was think of buying couple cables to power my HP 1200W PSUs as well as a converted 240V Server PSU (For my 24V DC battery charger)

 

As far as I know regular server 240v PSUs use C13 to C14 plugs and C14 to 6-30/50 type of locking plugs. I think this is the cable I need. Is there anything else I need to watch out for?

 

Thanks!

Make sure the outlet and plug look the same.

 

Make sure the psu can take 240v, and doesn't have a voltage switch.

 

But other than that, it should just plug in and work, and you save a bit of power too as psus are more efficient with higher voltages.
