Abstract
Systems and methods for the distribution of data center power are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes supplying power to a critical load using a stored energy device in response to detecting an outage of a utility; transmitting an on bypass request to a reserve power system via an automatic bypass input upon determining that a capacity of the stored energy device has reached a pre-determined threshold, wherein the on bypass request is transmitted from the primary UPS to a switchboard of the reserve power system; transferring the critical load to the reserve power system if the reserve power system is able to support the critical load, the transferring the critical load to the reserve power system comprising coupling the critical load to the switchboard via an automatic bypass input of the primary UPS.
