As power equipment density increases in domestic data centers, a digital-based high-voltage power distribution solution has been introduced to Korea for the first time. By combining high-voltage switchgear and digital vacuum circuit breakers to enable real-time condition monitoring and preventive maintenance, it is evaluated as a case responding to the demand for operational efficiency improvement in power infrastructure.

 

Schneider Electric announced on the 20th that it has supplied the high-voltage power distribution solution 'MCSeT with EvoPacT HVX' to a domestic data center power infrastructure construction project.

This is the first time this solution has been applied to a domestic data center.

The company explained that it is expanding the application of digital high-voltage power distribution technology in response to increased power demand and enhanced equipment requirements due to the proliferation of AI and cloud services.

 

 

The solution supplied this time combines high-voltage switchgear MCSeT and digital vacuum circuit breaker EvoPacT HVX.

 

MCSeT monitors temperature, ambient environment, and heat abnormalities at power connection points 24 hours a day using built-in sensors, and features a modular structure that allows for sensor additions and component replacement.

 

 

EvoPacT HVX is a digital vacuum circuit breaker that continuously monitors the actual operating status of key circuit breaker components using condition monitoring sensors.

 

When the condition monitoring function is linked with the service plan 'EcoCare,' abnormal signs including partial discharge can be detected early and proactive response is possible before power outages, according to the company.

 

Nam Jung-hwa, head of the Power Systems Division at Schneider Electric Korea, said, "It is important to establish a management system capable of continuously identifying the actual condition of equipment and abnormal signs. We will continue to support safe and stable power operations in data centers through digital-based high-voltage power distribution technology."
