ok, so I bought a used rack server. The
HP ProLiant DL360.
It’s a rack server. Problem is they sent me 6 power cords(all the same).

The issue is the male end of the plug. It has a barrier of plastic surrounding the metal prongs. You can’t plug it into a conventional wall outlet. Data centers must have unique receptacles for these server plugs.

The question I have is how do I plug the male end into the wall? It’s impossible with these plugs. What am I missing? Will it be okay to get two( yes there are two PSUs) conventional computer power cords and use them instead?

 
Did they send you cords for another country?

Wait do they look like this?

These are mainly used as an extension or direct into a PDU like this:

Otherwise you can use a standard US NEMA 15-5P to C13 cable. AKA the normal power cable that comes with computers, printers, and monitors.
 
Yeah need pictures... because if that plug is more rectangular, it might be a 220v input.

But usually, you just need NEMA 15-5P to C13 cables. Which honestly, you should have those everywhere... I can't get rid of the things... I swear they breed.
