LV Switchgear & Power Distribution
Workspace Technology designs and installs modular, resilient, ‘right size’ data centre electrical infrastructure including HV, LV, PDUs, UPS systems and Power Generators.
Next generation data centre power distribution systems must be adaptable to change to improve both availability and cost effectiveness. Workspace Technology offers clients a comprehensive range of critical and standard data centre power systems design and distribution services including;
- LV Switchgear & Data Centre Power Distribution
- Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) Systems
- Standby Generators
Workspace Technology will design and deploy data centre power distribution, UPS systems and generator systems to match the capacity and availability of the network critical physical infrastructure of your data centre facility.
The deployment of modular ‘right size’ design technology helps reduce overall power consumption and leads to a reduced total cost of ownership. Our contemporary approach to electrical installation helps reduce power consumption through modular, resilient and ‘right size’ data centre power distribution design.
Data Centre Power Distribution & Design
Workspace Technology designs electrical switchgear and associated data centre power distribution systems to meet the predicted design capacity and system availability to suit individual data centre power demands. As an example, high availability (Tier 3) data centres will deploy dual independent ‘A’ and ‘B’ power paths to offer enhanced resilience for dual corded servers and associated core network switches.
Our Design Engineers utilise AMTECH ProDesign, one of the UK’s leading electrical design packages. This ensures full electrical design and calculation to BS 7671 IEE 17th Edition with correct cable sizes, discrimination, breaker ratings and settings.
All installations are provided with detailed one-line schematics, distribution board schedules and system calculations. Workspace Technology is a fully Certified Electrical Contractor under the ECA Scheme.
Switchgear & Critical Power Distribution Units (CPDUs)
Workspace Technology’s data centre experts design and install LV panel board and associated data centre power distribution to match the availability and performance of the most demanding network environments for ultimate efficiency and control. Our services include the design, build and installation of:
LV Distribution Panel Boards
Workspace Technology designs solutions to meet availability, system reliability and concurrent maintainability of equipment, depending on your Data Centre’s “Tier” level design performance criteria. As a minimum, we aim to design Tier II solutions with recommendations for Tier III where businesses require enhanced levels of fault tolerance.
ATS Panel Systems - Workspace Technology offers a range of Automatic Transfer Switching systems, designed for fully automated initiation and switchover of power to the standby generator equipment.
Bypass Panels - To support servicing of UPS systems without the need to power down critical services, bypass panels are installed. Typical data centre power designs will support a range of UPS topologies with full interlock capability.
Standard and Intelligent Critical CPDUs
CPDUs are purpose made Critical Power Distribution Units designed specifically to support critical data centre power loads within data centres environments. CPDUs are designed to facilitate the safe and quick installation of additional data centre power deployments to support the dynamic changes which inevitably occur due to I.T refreshes. Workspace Technology offer a range of standard and intelligent metered per port solutions.
Standard Critical Power Distribution Unit - Floor standing PDUs are manufactured to support both raised and non-raised floor environments. All units are built to Form 4 Type 2 standard to allow for safe additions and changes to the field wiring. Our standard presentation is through the deployment of Schneider Electric Acti-9 pan assembly technology.
Intelligent ePDUs - Intelligent 'energy' Power Distribution Units (ePDU) provide power monitoring on all out going circuits. Workspace Technology’s ePDU systems incorporate advanced technology, configured to provide final circuit current, power and energy monitoring down to the individual equipment rack level. Alarms, status diagnostics and essential measurements, are also integrated to ensure effective critical power management.
Energy Metering Solutions
Workspace Technology’s implements a range of digital meters to provide flexible metering deployment within custom panels, switchboards, switchgear, gensets, motor control centres and UPS systems and are essential to the deployment of a complete EcoMeasure energy management solution.
