Default Average rack configuration and power

We're building out a new DC and I have a couple of questions on what is average for a couple items.

1) Rack Configuration - What is the usual depth of a rack? My initial hunting seems to point at 36". What is acceptable row spacing? We are taking part of a building and are trying to get 4 rows in. Our footprint can adjust to accommodate, but we need to understand how far apart to space.

2) Rack Power - What is an average power feed into a rack? Since most modern computer/network equipment can run at 208VAC, I'm assuming we will be able to get away with mostly 208V to each rack. Which amperage do you guys default with for an average customer? 15? 30?

Thanks for your help.
