First Case positioned and connected a 1 MW loadbank to a newly installed busbar system in a data hall. Both feeds were loaded separately, ramped up in steps with five compact units under a single remote control.
New busbar system tested with a 1 MW loadbank, both feeds loaded separately and in steps.
A freshly installed busbar system must be proven before it carries production. First Case positioned five 200 kW loadbanks under a single remote control and connected them, so both feeds of the data hall could be loaded separately with 1 MW. The manufacturer ran the test itself. The load was ramped up in steps, not all at once, so the behaviour stayed visible at each level. The work took place in an active environment, on weekdays within fixed windows.
The constraints: as few loadbanks and as little cabling as possible, compact units under the 600 kg floor-loading limit and cable sets up to 75 m to reach the setup. The work ran five days with a team of two.
Five 200 kW loadbanks are set up and connected to the feed with cable sets up to 75 m.
The load is ramped up in small steps, so the behaviour stays visible at each level.
Both feeds of the hall are loaded separately up to 1 MW, one at a time.
The five compact units, under the 600 kg floor limit, run under a single remote control.
After the test, units and cabling are removed and the hall handed back clean.
Five 200 kW loadbanks are set up in the hall, 1 MW combined. With cable sets of 25 and 50 metres, up to a maximum of 75 metres, they are connected to the busbar feed. The setup keeps the number of units and the cabling small, with compact units under the 600 kg floor-loading limit.
The busbar has a feed on both sides of the hall; each side is tested separately, one at a time. The load is ramped up in small steps to 1 MW, not all at once, so the system can be assessed at each level. Five units run in sync under a single remote control.
At each load step, the behaviour of the busbar system is assessed, so it is clear that the feed handles the full 1 MW. After the test, the units and cabling are removed. The hall is handed back clean, ready to go into production.
A fixed flow: set up, connect, switch over, tear down.
Five 200 kW loadbanks set up and connected to the feed.
First feed ramped to 1 MW in steps and assessed.
Second feed loaded to 1 MW in the same way.
Units and cabling removed, hall handed back clean.
Setup, test and teardown within five days. Our crew: two engineers.
We set up five 200 kW units under one remote control, connected with cable sets up to 75 m: 1 MW per feed. After five days we removed the units and cabling and handed the hall back clean.
Planned electrical work on the entire electrical installation of a hyperscale data centre in the Netherlands with a fixed supervisor-led crew, more than 200 planned working days over several months.
12 UPS systems placed and fully DC-cabled in a colocation data centre in the Netherlands, 144 cables of 95 mm², every conductor labelled.
Around 680 m of busbar installed in a colocation data centre in the Netherlands, including support structure, insulation testing and handover via Site Acceptance Test.
