ABB's direct current portfolio and 800 V DC aim to reshape AI data center power
ABB has presented a new direct current portfolio intended to rebuild power supply for AI data centers. Industry material says 800 V direct current will redraw data center power distribution.
Who is affected and how
- engineer
- New data center power distribution designs should also consider a direct current architecture as an alternative.
- supplier
- Makers of conventional alternating current distribution equipment need to assess how much of their product range is affected by the shift to direct current.
- energy specialist
- Operating and protecting DC systems requires different knowledge, so staff training should be planned in advance.
