Hi chaps

Customer has asked me about installing a mains supply to a 16amp UPS on their server.

The UPS hasn’t come with a power cord, the customer has searched Amazon for a 16Amp IEC C19 lead which comes with a 13Amp plug top, should it be supplied directly to the CU on a 16amp RCBO on a radial circuit via a 20amp double pole switch similar to installing an immersion heater or a 16 amp microwave or double oven, obviously the power cord would then not require a plug top fitted
 
Bugger, I hate trying to add a link on my phone. It always just posts the message. Anyway, CPC sell the leads.
Does it need a 16a supply or is that what it can put out when in use? What does the manual say?
