Modular Platform eliability Legacy thought suggests that devices with fewer parts have fewer parts to fail. Intuition supports belief that the simpler device is more reliable However edundancy improves Data Center eliability. Thoughtful complexity can increase reliability. Informed design and testing of more complex systems can result in significantly improved reliability.

Electrical Safety for Data Center Managers & Owners What is NFPA 70E? NFPA 70E is a Standard for Electrical Safety in the Work Place Designed at the equest of OSHA* educe Exposure to: Shock Hazard Electrocution Arc Flash/Blast Each update calls for significant changes particularly in the areas of safety, maintenance and training. *OSHA- 1910.331-335, by law, requires electrically safe work practices. OSHA has stated NFPA 70E will be a document used to determine electrically safe work practices.
Electrical Safety for Data Center Managers & Owners NFPA 70E-130.2 Electrically Safe Working Conditions: Electrically Safe Work Conditions. Energized electrical conductors and circuit parts operating at voltages equal to or greater than 50 volts shall be put into an electrically safe work condition before an employee performs work if any of the following conditions exist: (1) The employee is within the limited approach boundary. (2) The employee interacts with equipment where conductors or circuit parts are not exposed but an increased likelihood of injury from an exposure to an arc flash hazard exists.
Electrical Safety for Data Center Managers & Owners Call to Action Engage and Educate Safety Committee Get an Electrical Safety assessment by a qualified firm Establish an Electrical Safety Program 1 Arc Flash isk Assessment 2 Incident Energy Analysis 3 Appropriate Equipment Labeling (as per NEC 110.16) Engage outside contractors Adherence to NFPA 70E Job Briefing Meetings Work Permits isk Assessments Embrace Electrical Safety
