Now as we know, these can only support NEMA L6-30, vs. the variable power supplies such as the 3000W. I've run out of L6-30R's in my data center as our new rack PDU's are of this spec. I may need to use 110V NEMA 5-20 plugs.

I've only had a passing glance at your message, so apologies if this
isn't helpful, but have you had a look at the Power Calculator tool?
