Guarantee 100% Uptime in Your Data Centre with a Switchboard
Understanding the specifics of the components in your power chain, such as the data centre switchboard, is essential to determining your system's health, power capacity and utilisation, uptime, redundancy, and ease of maintenance, planning, and troubleshooting.
To guarantee that the primary digital functions of a data centre continue without interruption, a well-designed low-voltage switchboard is a crucial component of its electrical infrastructure.
Our enclosures, including those for data centres, ensure protection, safety, and longevity. This is crucial for data centres where the reliability and security of electrical components are vital to prevent outages and maintain seamless operations.
Increased Security for Workers and Equipment
In settings like data centres, where vital IT infrastructure is housed, safety is not just important, but also essential. With features that greatly reduce electrical dangers, our switchboards are designed to the highest safety requirements. They have cutting-edge safety features like fault interrupters and circuit breakers that react quickly to an electrical anomaly to shield people and delicate equipment from possible harm.
Today's data centre switchboard is becoming increasingly important in maintaining high availability for data centre tenants, mostly due to the intense demand for capacity.
A low-voltage distribution switchboard in a modular data centre functions as a bigger counterpart to a home's circuit breaker panel. Power enters the data centre through the switchboard, which is then routed and rerouted to divide the load among power sources as necessary.
A switchboard is used to build in a far greater level of redundancy in data centres than is necessary for the typical commercial facility to maintain the appropriate level of uptime and availability. For instance, open transition switches are typically used in noncritical facilities. There may be a temporary power loss and some downtime when this kind of power transfer occurs since the transfer switch disconnects from one power source and reconnects with another.
Closed transition switches, on the other hand, are used in data centres and other essential facilities because they provide a smooth transition from one power source to another. To prevent noticeable interruptions to services and applications, closed transitions temporarily overlap utility or generator backup power sources.
Data centre switchboard is changing from essentially an on/off switch to an interactive, adaptive data protection solution that collaborates with other power distribution components for optimal system performance and data availability to meet the rapidly increasing demand for data storage and capacity.
When the utility power goes out, for instance, in a modular data centre equipped with a contemporary switchboard, the UPS kicks in to maintain server functionality and guarantee that mission-critical systems, such as cooling and fire suppression, continue to work.
Data centre switchboards by A&T Enclosures meet the stringent requirements necessary for performance and safety in large-scale electrical systems.
