Challenges

  • Our client, the world's largest carrier-neutral colocation provider, needed one EPMS architecture across a growing portfolio comprising more than 300K branch circuits and newly acquired sites.

  • Fragmented monitoring data, device models, and server environments complicated electrical visibility, alarm response, and capacity analysis.

  • Operational teams required lower fault-detection latency and maintainable telemetry at a scale.

  • The integration had to sustain service-level performance while extending the core platform across different site populations.

Technologies

  • EPMS
  • branch-circuit monitoring
  • metering infrastructure
  • real-time telemetry
  • User-Defined Data Types (UDTs)
  • functional testing
  • device-level calibration
  • service-level reporting

Solution

  • Established a scalable EPMS integration approach spanning 300K+ branch circuits, more than 80 servers, and shared telemetry.

  • Normalized device data for more than 250 UDTs to create consistent tags, alarm behavior, and reporting outputs.

  • Integrated and validated 8m+ tags, strengthening end-to-end telemetry quality across the portfolio’s electrical distribution infrastructure.

  • Applied functional testing and calibration practices to confirm measurement reliability, fault detection, and performance reporting before operational handover.

Outcomes delivered

  • Integrated 300K+ branch circuits into a single power monitoring operating model.

  • Reduced fault-detection latency by 60% across integrated electrical telemetry.

  • Sustained 95% site uptime across 5 years of operations.

  • Standardized more than 8m tags for portfolio-wide reporting.
