IIRC, the 3 power supplies are each capable of handling 1/2 of the
load; you have a 3/2 power supply.  The theory is that you can lose
any one of the three and still run with no problems.

The logic is that a power supply for 1/2 the load is cheaper than one
that can handle the full load; and providing an extra 1/2 is cheaper
than providing two full-sized power supplies.
