BICSI (via Cabling Installation & Maintenance) 2019
Keep BICSI 002 edition history (2014, 2019, 2024) in the standards registry for projects citing older editions.
Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) 2024
Offer a rating-level selector (Rated-1..4) that is separate from Uptime Tiers.
Aksa Power Generation 2026
Add ESP and DCP kW/kVA, rated current, fuel l/h at 50/75/100%, exhaust flow and heat, radiator airflow and allowable external static, dimensions/weight and base tank as generator catalog fields.
Uptime Institute Journal (Uptime Institute) 2015
Include an arc flash incident-energy study placeholder and a labelling output for each switchboard in the electrical module.
Siemens 2020
In the arc-flash module, evaluate incident energy at the LV main line-side terminals using the upstream MV device's clearing time, not the LV main's.
Standards (MDPI AG) 2026
Schedule the arc-flash study after the coordination study and make that order a mandatory step in the project plan and model.
Consulting-Specifying Engineer 2019
Implement the 90.4 MLC and ELC calculators with the correct test load points per UPS redundancy class (N/N+1 vs 2N).
Schneider Electric 2012
In the capacity planner keep design, installed and expected-load curves separate per phase and show utilisation over a 10-year horizon; default start-up load to 20-30% of design and final load to 60-90%.
Data Center Frontier 2020
Offer distributed UPS topologies (in-server, in-rack battery shelf, in-row) alongside centralized UPS, with an efficiency and blast-radius comparison.
Data Center Frontier 2024
Support hybrid air/liquid halls and rack-level or near-rack backup power topologies in the design library.
CIGRE US National Committee, 2025 Grid of the Future Symposium (arXiv preprint) 2025
In a large-load interconnection application, verify the relevant entity's large-load threshold (10-75 MW) and ramp limit (Southern ≤20 MW/min) early; definitions differ widely between entities.
Open Compute Project Foundation 2025
Give rack power distribution components fields for rated current, maximum voltage drop and cooling method.
BICSI 2026
Add a 'credentials' field to the user profile and recognise DCDC as a value there.
T.C. Cumhurbaşkanlığı Siber Güvenlik Başkanlığı 2026
Provide a Turkey public-sector compliance checklist mapping the measures to design objects: dedicated IT UPS, N+1 air conditioning with auto changeover, redundant feeds, generator fuel redundancy, room adjacency checks against wet areas.
T.C. Cumhurbaşkanlığı / Bakanlar Kurulu 2007
In the TR profile, default IT-room suppression to a TS ISO 14520 clean-agent design with damper-close interlocks.
Vertiv 2025
Add a BESS block to the site model with power (MW), duration (h), reserved-backup fraction and grid/island capability.
Schneider Electric 2014
Capture peak kW/rack and the peak-to-average ratio as well as the average, and express density in W/rack instead of W/m2.
Open Compute Project Foundation 2026
Extend the generator catalogue with technology type (diesel, HVO, gas, H2 ICE, PEM fuel cell), emissions factor relative to the 1742 lb/MWh baseline, start time, block-load capability and NFPA 110 level.
European Commission 2022
When validating server PSU data against the 2023 tier, apply an informational exception, not a hard error, for units placed on the market during 2023 (legacy stock).
European Commission 2019
In the IT equipment catalogue store PSU efficiency at 10/20/50/100% load, power factor, active state efficiency (SERT/EN 303470) and declared operating class A1-A4, and validate new models against the 2023 tier.
Consulting-Specifying Engineer 2008
For phased builds, the tool should place load-bank connection points and isolation breakers and output a Cx test list with individual, discrete and integrated levels.
IEEE Open Journal of Industry Applications (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)) 2020
Keep bus gap as an input in arc flash calculations for DC panels and battery busbars; do not rely on the maximum-power method alone.
CIGRE US National Committee, 2026 Grid of the Future Symposium (arXiv preprint) 2026
Design data-centre UPS and load control to the most restrictive entity's requirement: 6.0 s ride-through at 0.70-0.90 pu (CAISO), six fault-clearing attempts within 90 s (SPP), six 50-70 ms reclosings (Dominion), and the ban on constant-power control (SPP).
Schneider Electric 2021
Add a protectionControlScheme attribute to the MV module: hardwired_plc_modbus, iec61850_station_bus, iec61850_process_bus.
