So yesterday was a challenging day for one of my projects on a large Data center in Ireland , after the installation of 22 high voltage UPS UNITS (each unit costing in excess of €500,000 per unit) we had temporary high votage supply’s fed into the system and the qualified electrician/engineer gradually added the load on in phases while the manufacturer from Germany was onsite to carry out diagnostics, unfortunately we got to about 72% of the load added on when a vibration from the busbar was present and we had to suspend the test because there was a risk of an explosion if we added any more load on to the system. Now starts the fun of fault finding, corrective actions and re scheduling the testing and commissioning
