    This case study describes the critical power monitoring project (PMS) for a large colocation data center facility in the UK. The PMS system monitors power status, meters power usage from 11kV to rack level, and provides billing reports for tenants. Hardware includes meters, I/O modules, and intelligent PDUs. Software includes CitectSCADA for monitoring, PME for metering and logging, and Mardix ims for tenant billing and alerts. The project underwent rigorous commissioning and testing over 6 weeks. The system now monitors over 100 devices and meters power for over 30 tenants. Lessons learned focused on thorough planning, communication, testing, and flexibility.

    Our View on Delivering a Successful Critical Power
    PMS
    Know your PMS solution and the requirements of the project

    Establish early and clear lines of communication with all parties

    Produce a clear and detailed Functional Design Specification before


    commencing

    Work to a programme detailing all dependencies and requirements

    Commission and test as much as possible off site, under factory


    conditions

    Take charge of your own success

    Be prepared to react to issues as they arise.because they will
