Power Surveys by EPI |
Factors that can affect your data centre are not necessarily as obvious as a power outage or a lightning strike. - System lockup
- Lost data
- Screen flicker
- Changes in operational speed of IT equipment
- Data corruption
These are common indicators of "dirty power" feeding IT equipment. It is a common belief that the power supply is reliable, clean and stable... NO! Whether it is an office, communications room or data centre; voltage spikes, surges, brown outs and other problems are a potential hazard to your IT systems.
Computer systems have, however evolved and changed in an effort to achieve greater efficiency and smaller size, with increased capability, manageability and availability. The move from linear to switch mode power supplies in computers has changed the power requirements and heightened sensitivity to power fluctuations. |

The power survey will: |
- Identify any site electrical problems present.
- Explore operating symptoms that are caused by electrical problems.
- Assess the capabilities of the power infrastructure, cables, sockets and building transformers.
- Identify the capability of UPS devices, building transformers and earthing.
Following the survey an extensive report highlights the key finding and provides recommendations if required.
