Summary: Equinix will be performing annual maintenance on the A3 and A4 Static Transfer Switch (STS) systems at the ME1 facility. This scheduled activity forms part of Equinix’s ongoing preventative maintenance program aimed at ensuring the continued reliability and safety of critical power systems.
Service Impact Power Systems: - Loads will remain on utility power throughout the maintenance. - UPS-backed loads will be temporarily transferred to an alternate UPS-protected source. - Power redundancy will be reduced during switching operations.
Cooling Systems: - Cooling system redundancy will be maintained. No environmental impact is expected.
Additional Information: - Maintenance will be carried out on one STS at a time to ensure continuous operation. - All tasks are designed to be non-disruptive, although switching between redundant systems may temporarily reduce fault tolerance. - Testing and inspection of the STS systems will be performed to validate operational health and integrity.
Customer Action: No action is required. This maintenance is not expected to impact customer services directly. If your circuit is supported by the equipment involved, it will remain protected by alternate infrastructure.
If you have any questions or would like further information, please contact our support team.
