1.2 Switchgear installations
There are two primary installation methods in the switchgear:
•
Standard
•
Split-redundant
With standard installation, redundant components such as the CPUs, Messenger switches, and
UPSs are installed together in the equipment. This method optimizes footprint and convenience
of maintenance.
With split-redundant installation, redundant components such as the CPUs, Messenger
switches, and UPSs are split-up with at least one switchgear stack separating them. This
method optimizes system availability.
For more information, see DEH-237 Entellisys Low Voltage Switchgear Installation and
Maintenance Instruction Guide.
