Alot of our racks have 4-20amp circuits since we populate the crap out of the racks. Most hosts give either 1 - 15 amp or 1- 20 amp power circuit with options to purchase more for $300 - $350 each a month.

You never want to go over 16 amps draw on a 20 amp circuit (75% draw), what kind of servers are they? I run ibm dual xeons that draw 1.5 amp per server and the p4 and amd boxes draw .75 of a amp or less.
Good rule of thumb is 1 amp draw per server unless its has lots of disks.
