Start time: 05:30 AM PT 01/26/2024
End time: 07:30 AM PT 01/26/2024
Expected Duration of Test: 2 hours

Our datacenter will be conducting a live Generator Transfer Test on 01/26/2024 at 05:30 AM PT until 07:30 AM PT. During this time, DC staff will be testing their systems to verify that the load is successfully transferred to the backup generators by the Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS). Moreover, that the generators will carry the load for an extended period of time. The datacenter is running this test to make sure we are fully prepared for an actual commercial power outage if one were to occur.

Customers should NOT be affected by this testing unless there is an issue with the back-up systems in place. This would, of course, be an unforeseen issue as we are always committed to our continuing preventative maintenance on all datacenter critical equipment. If there is an issue with our backup systems, we will immediately abort the testing and transfer back to commercial power. DC staff will be on site during the maintenance to oversee the testing.
