Belgium is increasingly facing grid congestion, with demand and/or supply of electricity exceeding the capacity of our grid. As a result, power failures and outages are lurking. To guarantee that our power supply is maintained even at crucial moments, Power Solutions offer a solution. Within Power Solutions, we distinguish between Power Distribution Units (PDUs) for electrical power distribution and Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPSs) for emergency power supply, which – in combination with the corresponding monitoring and management tools – guarantee efficient and reliable power distribution and optimum connectivity. Both PDUs (aka: voltage shunters) and UPSs have several implementation variants, from very simple to extremely complex, with UPSs based on the nine most common disturbances in our power network.
Data cabling installers are increasingly faced with the consequences of grid congestion. This is because the energy transition to renewable energy sources is making the power grid less stable. More and more cameras, Wi-Fi access points, LED lighting and access control systems are powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE). Equipment offering PoE should be optimally protected from fluctuations in the electricity network. For example, to ensure the operation of connected equipment – and thus business continuity. The deployment of UPSs can guarantee a stable power supply despite disturbances in the power network. Understanding the operation of these UPSs as well as PDUs requires basic knowledge of electrical engineering. It also helps to make the right choices when putting together a UPS system and/or PDU configuration.
Kannegieter College’s Power Solutions course helps installers, project managers and others with no or only limited electrical engineering knowledge to get started in the world of Power distribution, grid congestion, redundant power supplies, power storage and its impact on our IT infrastructure. The course starts with a basic introduction Electricity Theory, after which the grid congestion issues and most common disruptions in our power supply are covered. Which PDU and UPS variants provide solutions to these? And what are their functions? Then we pay extensive attention to the need for a redundant power supply and configuring the UPS to ensure a reliable and stable power supply. Peakshaving, Power Storage and the application of batteries in UPS systems and emergency power supplies such as emergency generators complete the course.
