At this time, The datacenter Maintenance Staff will be replacing an older Powerware 9315-Series 160KVA UPS with a brand new 275KVA 9395-Series model, and the associated larger maintenance bypass, breakers, & wiring required for such.

This repair can be service affecting, however, it will not affect all clientele in the Scranton facility, or the network as a whole, but will affect approximately 15-20% of the servers in the facility (the same portion of the facility/servers affected by the emergency maintenance on April 4th 2009).
