Power distribution, UPS, batteries, protection and redundant supply.
313–336 / 418
The Green Grid 2007
In the electrical topology library, tag topology templates (480/208 V AC, 415/240 V AC, DC options) with qualitative pros and cons.
The Green Grid 2011
Support prefabricated module objects (power skids, container halls) as catalogue items with fixed capacity, footprint and interfaces.
The Green Grid 2012
In the UPS module, model double-conversion and Eco/ESS modes with separate efficiency curves.
The Green Grid 2012
In phased-build planning, support staged UPS and generator modules with efficiency at each load step.
The Green Grid 2013
Compare THDi and THDv against IEEE 519 limits at the PCC rather than demanding near-zero values.
The Green Grid 2015
Offer a reduced-conversion topology scenario.
The Green Grid 2016
Store PSU ride-through (ms) as a catalog field for IT equipment.
The Green Grid 2016
Catalog the ride-through time per PSU.
The Green Grid 2022
For EU sites, default server PSU efficiency to the Lot 9 (Regulation (EU) 2019/424) minimum.
The Green Grid 2023
Add a 480Y/277 V-to-rack option with 277 V PSUs and no PDU transformer to the electrical topology library.
Eaton 2021
In the asset/lifecycle module store the installation year per UPS and battery, and project replacement dates from the component table defaults.
TMMOB Makina Mühendisleri Odası (MMO) 2007
Warn when IT and comfort loads share one UPS or one chilled-water primary loop, since that blocks independent temperature reset and free cooling.
Schneider Electric 2026
Add a distribution architecture option for AI halls: AC 415/240, 48 VDC busbar, 800 VDC sidecar, 800 VDC centralized.
Schneider Electric 2026
In the schedule estimator, default MV switchgear lead time to about 26-32 weeks (ETO)
BICSI 2024
Offer BICSI classes as an alternate standards profile alongside Uptime/TIA/EN, with an F1~Tier I/Rated-1/Class 1 ... F4~Tier IV/Rated-4/Class 4 table labelled 'conceptual equivalence only'
Telecommunications Industry Association 2024
In a 'TIA-942' standards profile, let users pick a rating per discipline (for example electrical Rated-3, mechanical Rated-3, telecom Rated-2)
Schneider Electric 2021
In the operations module attach a maintenance strategy and default PM interval (quarterly/semi-annual/annual) to each catalog asset class, with a condition-based monitoring option.
Schneider Electric 2018
Add battery catalogue parameters: chemistry, service life at 25°C, m² per kWh, kg per kWh and floor loading.
Schneider Electric 2017
Prefer Li-ion with a 10-year life as the default for edge and rack UPS.
Eaton 2016
Add a designLifeYears catalog parameter per equipment type, default to the range midpoint, and drive a TCO/refresh timeline from it.
U.S. DOE FEMP / NREL 2024
Weigh the supply air setpoint against server fan energy: raise it in small steps within the ASHRAE recommended range so the most demanding inlet nears 80 °F, only after air management is in place, and control to IT inlet temperature rather than return temperature.
Schneider Electric 2013
Use this paper as the template for the Design Basis form: target average kW per rack, peak kW per rack (default 2x average), density uncertainty (default 15%), managed power ratio (default 0.7) and reserve space (default 15%).
Schneider Electric 2017
Implement as the default heat-load calculator: Q = IT + (0.04 x UPS + 0.05 x IT) + (0.01 x UPS + 0.02 x IT) + 14.32 x area + 100 x people
Schneider Electric 2011
Use it as a quick-sizing calculator in novice mode: take IT kW, future kW, floor area, cooling type and UPS input type, and output service kW/A and generator kW, with the multipliers as editable defaults.
