NetBox version

v2.11.9

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Add the ability to choose AC Direct Wire to power types, similar to DC Terminal.

This would be a simple adder to netbox/dcim/choices.py

Use case

Not all devices are connectorized coming off power panels and indicating an end device is directly wired is currently not possible.

A simply example would be a UPS output breaker wired to a power panel input breaker and then further wired to a PDU input breaker (which would all be direct wired) or a power panel wired to a control panel, annunciator panel, etc.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

I could swear this came up in conversation under a previous issue, but I can't find it now.

At any rate, I think it makes sense.
