Specialized Data Center Testing Solutions

Beyond standard testing and maintenance, these specialized services target the most critical vulnerabilities in your power infrastructure to maximize uptime and protect your investment.

Detect overheating components before failure. Identify loose connections, load imbalances, and failing parts via thermal imaging without shutting down equipment. We’ll isolate thermal anomalies in connectors, conductors, or components and help you correct the issue before it results in a costly outage.
Validate your backup power with real-world conditions.
Our resistive and reactive load bank testing provides full KW and KVA loading to validate generator performance, cooling, exhaust, and fuel systems, and transfer switch and UPS system reliability.
Verify your uninterruptible power supply before you need it. We recommend UPS testing within 72 hours of installation to ensure it performs to manufacturer specifications. However, testing can be conducted at any stage to establish a performance benchmark and assess failure risk.
Ensure your emergency backup system works as intended.
Do your loads transfer and restore power within 7–10 seconds during an outage? We simulate utility power loss and verify automatic switchover, helping you correct any lag that could lead to expensive downtime.
Protect personnel, infrastructure, and uptime.
Arc flash is one of the most dangerous and overlooked threats in a data center. We provide customized hazard analysis, single-source engineering for hazard reduction, and ensure NFPA 70E compliance. We also support proper labeling, PPE selection, and safety documentation.
