case study
Raiden Technologies installed the Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) infrastructure and communications cabling for a 190MW hyperscale data centre. The scope covered the enclosures, network rack, Cat6, fibre optic and control cabling that connect the site’s critical power equipment to real-time monitoring, all tested, labelled and documented to the client’s control specification.
An EPMS installation in a hyperscale data centre connects switchboards, UPS systems, power distribution and generators to a central monitoring network through structured Cat 6 and fibre optic cabling. Raiden delivered 36 Cat6 links, an OTDR-tested fibre backbone and three EPMS enclosures at a 190MW hyperscale data centre.
Raiden was engaged to install the EPMS panels, network rack and HMI panel for a data hall and its electrical room within a 190MW hyperscale data centre, along with all of the communications cabling they need. The team delivered 36 Cat6 links to critical power equipment, a 6-core fibre optic link to the data hall server rack, 24VDC control cabling and 240V rack power. Everything was tested, labelled and documented to specification.
The data centre’s EPMS had to connect dozens of critical power assets across the electrical room, data hall and external generator areas. Those assets included main switchboards, UPS systems, power distribution cabinets and generators. Every cable had to follow strict routing, containment, labelling and testing requirements under Australian Standards and the client’s own control specification, inside a live, highly controlled hyperscale construction environment.
Raiden mounted, aligned and wired the EPMS panel, network rack and data hall HMI panel. The team then ran Cat6 cabling from the network rack to 34 critical power assets, using existing cable trays and adding new cable basket or conduit where needed. A 6-core fibre optic link connects the EPMS network to the data hall server rack. Every link was terminated, ferruled, labelled with EPMS identification along its route, and tested, with full Cat6 and OTDR fibre test reports handed over.
Security and electrical systems delivered on this project.
EPMS panel, 6RU network rack and data hall HMI panel mounted, aligned and wired, with mechanical completion verified
36 Cat6 links from the EPMS network rack to switchboards, UPS, power distribution cabinets, generators and HMIs
6-core fibre optic link from the EPMS network to the data hall server rack, OTDR tested with a full report
24VDC twisted-pair control cabling to the data hall HMI, plus 2 × 240V circuits and DGPOs feeding the network rack
Routing in primary trays, plus new cable basket and flexible conduit for secondary containment, to Australian Standards
Ferrules, EPMS identification labels along cable routes, and certified Cat6 and fibre test reports
The data hall’s critical power equipment is now fully connected to the EPMS, giving operators real-time visibility of switchboards, UPS, power distribution and generators from the electrical room and the data hall. Every link was tested, labelled and documented, so the system was handed over ready for commissioning and easy to maintain long term.

An Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) gives operators real-time data on the facility’s critical power equipment, including switchboards, UPS systems, power distribution units and generators. It helps them spot faults early, manage load and protect uptime.
Usually Cat6 copper cabling from the EPMS network rack to each monitored device, plus fibre optic links back to the main network, and control and power cabling for the panels. At this 190MW hyperscale data centre, Raiden installed 36 Cat6 links, a 6-core fibre link, 24VDC control cabling and 240V rack power.
OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) testing sends light pulses down a fibre to measure loss, find splices and connectors, and locate faults along the cable. It produces a detailed report proving the fibre link performs to specification.
Clear labelling lets technicians trace any cable instantly during maintenance, fault-finding or upgrades. Hyperscale specifications often require identification labels at set intervals along the cable route, not just at each end.
Communications cabling must be installed by registered cablers to the Australian Wiring Rules and relevant Australian Standards. Hyperscale operators also usually have their own control specifications covering containment, segregation, labelling and testing.
