INF.2.A14 Use of an Emergency Power System [Planner, Building Services] (S)

The power supplied to a data centre from the grid of an energy utility company SHOULD be supplemented by an emergency power system (EPS). If an EPS is in place, it MUST be regularly maintained. Load and functional tests, as well as test runs under load, MUST be conducted when performing maintenance.

The operating supplies for an EPS MUST be checked regularly to see if they are sufficient. Regular checks MUST also be performed to ensure that these supplies are still usable, and especially to avoid "diesel bug". If possible, low-sulphur heating oil SHOULD be used instead of diesel fuel. Refuelling operations MUST be logged. The log MUST include the type of fuel, the additives used, the date of refuelling, and the quantity refuelled.

If an EPS is not used for a server room, a UPS with a run time appropriate for the protection needs at hand SHOULD be implemented as an alternative.
