KEN'S KORNER - UL Listed Power Cables
Why UL Listed Power Cables
By using UL Listed and Hi-pot tested power cable assemblies, data center managers can be certain that the power whip code requirements are met and that there are no weak links in the material used to fabricate the power feeds to the critical servers.
If your data center is hosting outside customers; you can feel confident knowing that your critical servers are supplied with UL listed power cables. I recommend that this is communicated to your customers.
As a facilities provider, your IT support and customers can be confident knowing that all of their power whips are UL Listed.
Another valuable reason is that electrical inspectors prefer inspecting and pulling permits of power cables which meet the UL requirements. They can feel confident knowing that extra measures have been added to building the power feeds which have the UL seal of approval.
Using UL Listed cable assemblies assure the data center manager and electrical inspector of code compliance and provide certainty of data center up-time.
