According to the documentation, the high capacity supplies should only be mixed with the normal ones while doing an upgrade process.
NOTE:
You can mix the MX480 high-capacity and normal-capacity power supplies only during the PEM upgrade process. We do not recommend using this configuration in any other cases.

Subject: power supply MX480
Hi,
can I combine power supply PWR-MX480-1200-AC-S with the power supply PWR-MX480-2520-AC-S in one chassis? One PSU has failed and I have spare PSU PWR-MX480-2520-AC-S with higher power and I don't know if this is compatible with three PSUs PWR-MX480-1200-AC-S which remained in the chassis .
Thank you
Josef
