Backup generators ensure that data centers (and their clients) are never without power. But how do you make sure those backup plans work?

Mark Taylor of Evoque Data Center Solutions™️ gives a detailed explanation of how Evoque data centers test the power fail safes and backup generators via a “building load test” every month. During this test, power is shifted to the generators to ensure they can handle the load and respond appropriately. To further test the backup system, Evoque performs quarterly load banking (which Mark describes as “a giant hair dryer”) to ensure the generators are running at their peak.

Through these processes, Evoque and our clients can be confident that power will always be available.
