An essential element to ensure continued supply of power to your data centre, the choice of robust and safe cable management products will enhance the electrical safety and long term reliability of your facility.
Step down transformers are often used to bring high voltage power from the external substation, inside the data centre maintaining a regulated output.
Maintaining connections through good quality, reliable and effective cable management solutions is essential. This will ensure no costly downtime resulting from poor quality components, and ensuring protection of equipment, cables and ultimately your data centre asset.
Fire, alarm and security systems and cable circuits naturally require high performance cable glands to maintain their primary functions. This includes reliable sealing against dust and moisture ingress, and also deluge systems where they are installed.
If the cables are screened or armoured with a metallic layer, the effective earthing continuity of these layers is essential.
Whether used on MV or LV circuits, cable cleats are necessary to secure and support cables and protect them from damage. Failure to select the right products could lead to consequential damage to other equipment, as well as the cables, and loss of power supply in the event of a short circuit.
For fire performance circuits, it is advisable that any fixings or cable supports are non-combustible. Building regulations across the world are gradually being updated to mandate this in the wake of premature collapse of cables in fire situations.
Therefore, to compliment fire performance cables, fire rated cable cleats should be used.
High temperature
In 2021, HV cable cleats were introduced to the IEC 61914 standard for the first time. The standard now includes testing requirements for HV cable cleats as well as LV and MV.
Therefore, it is important that the products being selected are in full compliance with the latest edition of this IEC 61914 standard.
Uninterrupted power systems (UPS) are critical components to ensure continuous power supply within data centres. Through selection of the most appropriate cable management solutions, cables can be protected from various environmental conditions including moisture and vibration alongside short circuit fault conditions, ultimately avoiding any costly down time or data loss.
