Abstract

A modular data center support rack system and installation method whereby system includes a plurality of modular support racks formed from bracket-like rack members that support data center electrical power components, and a transportable fixture that detachably holds the rack members into an assembly position. The transportable fixture remains detachably connected to the assembled modular support rack during the transportation thereof to an installation location to reinforce the modular support rack. Each modular support rack includes an arrangement of data center electrical power supply components that are registrable with and connectable the data center electrical power supply components on another of the modular support racks. In the installation method, the modular support racks are serially interconnected into an appropriate electrical supply configuration for a row of servers located beneath the row of modular support racks.
