30-32 1U servers should be about 40 amps if not a little more.

What specs are these 1U servers?
Breakers are set at 80% on a circuit - on a 20A circuit, you will have 16Amps useable power.

The specs of the servers will depend on how much each uses.

Normal full rack comes with 20A, with ability to add up to 40A. Most places won't go over 40A because of heat load per sq ft issues.

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.
