Data Center Power Monitoring System Simplifies Generator Testing

A large data center was concerned about the reliability of their emergency diesel generator to provide power for their critical loads in the event they lost utility power. Typically, emergency generators are periodically tested to ensure that they are operationally sound and can ?pick up the load.? Because the diesel generator tests were performed on a weekly basis through an automated system, the data center personnel wanted to document that the tests were being performed as had been configured.

Petroleum Refinery Saves Millions with Returns in Less Than One Year

Second only to crude oil, electrical power is typically one of the highest production costs and key elements in the refining business. In the extremely competitive petrochemical industry, products are produced 24 hours/day - 7 days/week and pumped directly into the market without an inventory buffer. Unscheduled interruptions or disturbances which affect process equipment can lead to millions of dollars in lost production and electrical equipment if not managed properly. Therefore, the continuous supply of high quality power is essential to survival in the refining industry. This paper describes one west coast Refinery's success in proactively managing 110MW of power consumption with their PowerLogic power monitoring and control system that paid for itself in less than one year after it was fully commissioned.
