1st NT Data Center Power Protection  The building in which 1st NT resides is supplied with triple power feeds from the utility company. In the event of a power outage, the data center is equipped with a 1500 KVA ONAN diesel generator. The generator is tested every week. When a power outage is detected, the generator will start automatically within 15 seconds. With one tank of gas in the generator, it can power 15000 servers for 36 hours. Fuel can be added to keep the network up and running indefinitely.  The data center also uses an MGE data center Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). This UPS has been installed to constantly monitor and regulate the quality of power coming from the wall so that equipment always receives the clean 120-volt power it was designed for. CONTINUE
