UPS and Generator Backup

The availability of clean, conditioned power is perhaps the singularly most important requirement for a reliable IT infrastructure. Loss of power usually means loss of business, loss of customers and loss of revenue. Ensuring that your business can continue to function in the event of power disruption is of significant importance.

Not all businesses can justify the expense of a large UPS and generator to provide backup power to their data centre, or indeed their entire office. For some, it is a necessity. Our premises services team of experienced and knowledgeable electrical engineers have huge experience in this field and can customise a power backup solution to meet your business needs and budget.

UPS and Generator Solutions

There are a wide range of Uninterruptible Power Supplies on the market. It is important to install a UPS that can cope with the capacity of your server load and also meet the runtime requirements in the event of power failure. The function of a UPS, if a generator is not present, is to provide conditioned power to your business critical IT systems and to allow for a safe shutdown of the equipment in the event of extended power failure. If a generator is present, the UPS function is to provide conditioned power and ensure that there is no interruption to power delivery during the transition from mains to generator power.
