Requirements for Removing Power Distribution Boxes in Computer Rooms

Article 645 will apply if all the following are met: (1) Disconnecting means are provided that are in accordance with Section 645. 10; (2) a separate HVAC system is provided for the room, or another system in another area is used if fire/smoke dampers which operate from smoke. Let's explore an example of how rules within Chapter 6 modify the general requirements contained in chapters 1–4. In large facilities such as data centers, it is common for IT equipment to be installed in a single room or data center. In 2011, the National Electrical Code (NEC) introduced some major changes for areas identified as ITE spaces per Art. Key changes to be noted in this version of the NEC include: It is now explicitly clear that use of Art. Power Distribution Equipment is a term generally used to describe any apparatus used for the generation, transmission, distribution, or control of electrical energy.

The reserved space for high-voltage power distribution boxes should not be lower than the required minimum

The reserved space for high-voltage power distribution boxes should not be lower than the required minimum

The required height of the dedicated working space starts at the floor and extends to 6 feet above the top of the equipment or to the structural ceiling, whichever is lower. Working space: The front clearance, side clearance, and height clearance requirements for electrical equipment that provide a safe area for maintenance, inspections, and other work. This paper will review some of the NEC requirements regarding required electrical space and discuss new product concepts serving to reduce equipment size, resulting in reduced space requirements, reduced installation time, and reduced installation costs.
