Mission Critical Electrical Solutions

Mission Critical Data Center Electrical & Power Solutions

Baker Group powers mission critical operations across the U.S. with energy-efficient electrical design and dependable data center power solutions. Our expertise as a data center electrical contractor uniquely positions us to support mission critical infrastructure with reliable, redundant power systems providing 24/7 uptime. From hyperscale data centers and high-performance computing facilities to edge and colocation centers, we custom-build scalable power solutions for new facilities and retrofit systems for existing operations to meet growing load demands. Our advanced mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) expertise combined with our specialty experience with systems integration makes us a valuable mission critical partner for data center infrastructure.

Data Center Power Solutions For 24/7 Uptime & Performance

Data center redundancy is at the core of our approach for engineering resilient mission critical facilities, with N+1 and 2N redundancies built-in to accommodate system failure or outage. Whether it’s enabling servers to be online around the clock or facilitating efficient heat transfer through integrated cooling systems, our data center power solutions are the backbone of facility operations, streamlining environmental controls to keep conditions precise for optimal performance. In addition to our data center MEP capabilities, we’re also a leader in modular manufacturing, prefabricating power skids and racks to ship as installation-ready units across the country. Our speed-to-market allows for faster connection, streamlined uptime and improved efficiencies, all of which are better for your bottom line. Explore the essential electrical systems we design, build and install for your business to promote non-stop uptime.

UPS Systems

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Systems For Data Centers

Our uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems for data centers are just one example of a redundancy we design your operations around. Clean power is as critical for your equipment as consistent power is, so you can’t afford to sacrifice one in favor of the other. Baker Group’s UPS systems serve as both a filter for aggressive power to pass through as well as a failsafe designed to take over in the event of grid failure. We protect your equipment from harmful surges and prevent downtime with an instant back-up on site so you have time to troubleshoot instead of panic. Our electrical design capabilities for data centers paired with our modular approach allows us to build scalable UPS systems able to grow with your load and integrate seamlessly with other MEP solutions.

PDUs

Power Distribution Units (PDUs) For Data Centers

Baker Group goes above and beyond basic power distribution units (PDUs) for data centers, integrating automated logic and controls to track usage and minimize inefficiencies. Data center infrastructure is better supported by automated PDUs providing real-time insights and allowing you to evenly adjust power for balanced distribution across your facility. In turn, you can strive for an improved power usage effectiveness (PUE) ratio and reduce unnecessary energy expenses by redirecting power as necessary.

Another advanced skillset we bring to the table is conceptualizing modular data center electrical racks and skids for plug-and-play performance. We perform modular prefabrication in our controlled offsite manufacturing facilities to fully execute and commission PDU racks ready for installation. Modularation of these mission critical systems enables a faster turnaround to uptime in your quest for constant connectivity.

Structured Cabling

Structured Cabling Solutions For Data Centers

With our expertise in mission critical data center MEP solutions, structured cabling is just one more natural way we support data center infrastructure as a full-scale mission critical partner. Combining specialty trades like automation and systems integration with core MEP efficiencies, we’re able to promote uptime from day one of our partnership by streamlining power and connectivity solutions alike. As a design-build data center electrical contractor, we’re able to work with you early in the process to design electrical systems and componentry compliant with mission critical requirements and optimized for scalability.

Offsite Manufacturing For Data Center Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) Racks

With 450,000+ square feet of offsite manufacturing space at our centrally located facilities in Iowa, we complete tailored data center power solutions and combined data center MEP racks to deploy to our mission critical clients across the U.S. Modularization at our offsite facilities has a number of benefits for the fast-paced data center market, not the least of which is safety. Prefabricating electrical components and even full-on PDU and UPS systems in our quality-controlled facilities reduces the risk of electrical hazards on the job site, while creating a quicker path to uptime for data center infrastructure.

We can fabricate custom electrical skids and fully functional MEP systems in tandem with the facility being built at large, advancing construction timelines by months to accelerate operations. From modular motor control centers (MCCs) for the electrical room to the control panels (MCPs) on each skid and the pre-wired power and control harnesses between them, Baker Group provides single-point connections to simplify field installations and startup. For mission critical data centers planning expanded operations or new sites, standalone electrical skids and integrated MEP modules enable standardization of critical systems that arrive pre-tested to plug into operations, ensuring consistency for quick turnarounds and strict project specifications.

Systems Integration For Data Center Electrical Power Monitoring & Controls

Strengthen data center electrical infrastructure with integrated electrical power monitoring systems (EPMS) for predictive maintenance insights and proactive load adjustment. Achieving 24/7 uptime is a goal we share with our mission critical data center clients, but we also want to drive continuous uptime for a long time. Our automated EPMS solutions support sustainability and energy-efficiency initiatives by analyzing power performance in real-time and streamlining decision-making for a steady, cost-effective power flow. At Baker Group, we aim to not only execute projects above your expectations but also extend the lifespan of your system with automation and integrated expertise.

Load Bank Testing & Commissioning For Durable Data Center Infrastructure

Whether we’re shipping prefabricated electrical racks to your facility or installing our data center power solutions on site, we conduct comprehensive testing and commission each system for quality assurance. Most commonly, we manufacture data center power infrastructure at our offsite facilities, allowing for a unique, controlled environment to exploit system vulnerabilities and eliminate errors before shipping to you. Load bank testing and factory acceptance testing can go through the formal commissioning process before the system leaves our facilities, reducing the portion of QAQC performed onsite. Pinpoint problem areas, verify functionality and ensure compliance in the early stages of the project when you work with Baker Group for end-to-end data center electrical contracting.

Experts In Electrical Design For Data Center Redundancy & Reliability

Baker Group’s Proven Process includes supporting our clients for life, assisting through the planning, building and maintaining stages of the project life cycle. For our mission critical data center partners especially, involvement at each stage allows for essential data center redundancies to be built into and carried through the system design and execution. As facilities scale operations, we remain on the sidelines and ready for your call to retrofit or build new power systems to maintain N+1 and 2N redundancy. We have vast experience both as a design-assist and design-build contractor for data center electrical projects, mapping out power flow, incorporating fail-safes and setting up the construction team for success, whether we take on the labor or coordinate with your team to execute.

We’re Committed To Data Center Electrical Safety & Certification

Our team stays up-to-date on the National Electrical Code (NEC) standards to continue developing safe data center infrastructure compliant with today’s demands. We also maintain NFPA 70E certification solidifying our precision and expertise in live mission critical data center environments. We’re dedicated to upholding the highest safety standards in the industry and continue to expand on our knowledge of safety practices to remain safe and compliant for next-generation networks.
