Data Center main mission
● Globally speaking a Data Center
has one main mission:
● Supplying data processing and
storage capacity to continuously
operate business…
● …guarantying optimum up-time and
energy efficiency, in a perfectly
secure manner…
● ...while keeping in control the
environmental long term impact
3
Data center customer expectations
 Improving power availability
● Maximum energy
efficiency
Forecast growth in Data Center power
consumption in the USA and Europe (* EU-15 +
Switzerland).
4
Data center customer expectations
● Maximum flexibility
● Maximum speed
deployment
of
Data centers activity involves IT equipment that
is constantly changing. The installation must be
designed so as to:
•satisfy the increasing needs in electrical power
from new generations of servers.
•allow flexibility and upgradability without
altering the data center operations.
● Optimized Capex and Opex
TOC (Total Cost of Ownership)
● Equipment acquisition cost (CapEx Capital Expenditure)
● Operating and maintenance costs
(OpEx – Operating Expenditure)

Availability is drastically
increased
Busway
The decentralized electrical distribution architecture based
on Busway is much more reliable than the traditional
centralized solution based on cables and PDU.
This result comes mainly from the architecture and not
from the reliability difference between busway and cables.
Busway
Unavailability:
10,28 hours / years
Cables
PDU + cables unavailability:
16,74 hours / year
This graph shows the yearly unavailability for a Tier II architecture.
These results are from a complete study of all data center
architecture. This study is available for consultation
22
A safe & simple solution compare to the legacy
cable
● Main LV switchboard + cables
● Main LV switchboard + Busway
● Tap-off units can be plugged in or
removed without shutting down the
system, ensuring maximum continuity of
service when the racks are added or
moved
● iBusway for Data Center makes electric
circuits clear and easy to understand for
fast servicing where needed
● Zero foot print : busway can be installed
overhead or raised floor
23
Decentralized distribution reduces the risks of
human error
● Legibility of distribution : Electrical architecture
components are easy to locate and to identify
● Servicing in front of the cabinet
● without walking to a remote location power distribution unit
to turn off the circuit to the cabinet,
● risking the human error of shutting off the wrong circuit.
● Canalis are maintenance free thanks to sliding contact
made of silver platted copper
1 – spring of the tap-off clamp
2 – copper zone of the clamp
3 – silver-plated copper zone
4 – conductor silver- plated copper ridder
24
