Black building emergency power test BIT-2

Urgency: Planned
Affected services: Colocation BIT-2A and BIT-2BCD
Expected impact: Main power grid BIT-2A and BIT-2BCD
Customer intervention required: No
Reference number: 201848

Summary:

On Tuesday, December 9th between 5:00 hrs and 7:00 hrs we will perform a black building emergency power test at BIT-2.

Details:

During this maintenance, we will switch off the main power supply for the entire location BIT-2 for 60 minutes to test our emergency power systems. During this test, BIT engineers will be present at all required locations to monitor the situation, so they can intervene if necessary. In the days leading up to the black building test, we will perform a deep battery discharge test. This is done because we will also run on battery before running on generators. This discharge test will be performed on both feeds separately.
