The Importance of Critical Power Maintenance

Critical Power Maintenance really is important. The risk of failure and downtime related to a UPS load loss is quite high when back-up power systems (UPS and Generator), Switchgear, and Circuit Breakers are not properly maintained.  That is why we keep our clients up-to-date on the Importance of Critical Power Maintenance. Whether your system backs up a data center, 911 call center, hospital life safety, or company servers, your UPS load is critical to you.  Thankfully, there are ways to minimize these events.  Proper maintenance dramatically improves the performance, reliability, and service life of critical equipment. UPS systems that receive no preventive maintenance have a 400 percent greater chance of critical load loss when compared to properly maintained systems.

The more complex equipment is, the more crucial it is to have qualified, trained professionals servicing your critical power infrastructure.

Without proper technical training, and critical power maintenance, complex diagnostic and test equipment, and the ability to analyze test results, the average onsite personnel are limited in what they can do and what they can assess. For example, one might be able to review a unit’s alarm history and see voltage fluctuations, but not have the proper understanding of why these events are occurring or the potential for failure.
