These dual-power installation configurations allow you
to leverage the fully-redundant power features of your system.
Some models are designed with a fully redundant power system. The
possible power installation configurations are listed as follows.
Dual-power installation: Redundant distribution panel
and switch
This configuration requires that the system receives power from two separate power distribution
panels. Each distribution panel receives power from a separate piece of building switch gear. This
level of redundancy is not available in most facilities.Figure 1.
Dual-power installation: Redundant distribution panel
This
configuration requires that the system receives power from two separate
power distribution panels. The two distribution panels receive power
from the same piece of building switch gear. Most facilities should
be able to achieve this level of redundancy. Figure 2. Dual power installation -

Single distribution panel: Dual circuit breakers
This configuration requires that the system receives power from two separate circuit breakers in
a single power panel. This configuration does not make full use of the redundancy that is provided
by the processor. However, it is acceptable if a second power distribution panel is not available.
