UPS component failures: what are the leading issues?
In data centers, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems play a pivotal role in ensuring that critical operations continue seamlessly, even in the face of power disruptions. These systems, though indispensable, are not without their occasional flaws.
Power failures are the leading cause of impactful outages in data centers, Uptime Institute’s outages data show (see Annual outage analysis 2024). UPS systems are the number one source of these failures, despite most facilities having redundant capacity to avoid downtime due to failures or maintenance affecting a single UPS system.
