Think strategically
Ensure the right location from the start. Place your data center in a low risk area with minimum risk of high water table or long-term effects of humidity.
Use efficient seals
Water issues affecting operations may also occur under moderate rainfall events. Use best practice when sealing all openings for cables and pipes.
Avoid costly outages
Secure your entire facility. It is crucial to protect all your equipment, including generators and switchgear, from the risk of humidity and partial discharge.
