have been proven to be both scalable and sustainable solutions to providing power . which require more power , in turn creating more and more cables under the raised floor ; ultimately restricting the flow of cool air and completely contradicting the purpose of the excess space to begin with .
Over time many have realized this drawback of the traditional underfloor method , as well as various others , including the fact that raised floors are costly ; maintenance is required to remove unused cables , which tend to be abandoned ; and risk of human error while working with circuit breakers and cables that are not clearly associated with a given load .
Higher , Sustainable Busway Power
Overhead power distribution – otherwise known as busway systems – directly combat the traditional power solution of whips and cables beneath a raised floor . These systems
Select busway systems also provide a continuous access slot to power- meaning that a data center space will always be prepared for future reconfigurations or expansion . Power can be tapped at any location with a variety of plug-in units , eliminating panel boards , long runs of conduit and wire and expensive installation costs for dedicated power outlets . •
