A short-term increase in voltage, typically lasting at least one hundredth of a
second. Surges are caused by the stopping of nearby high-powered electrical
motors such as elevators. Computers are designed to receive power within a
certain voltage range. Anything outside of this range will stress delicate
components and cause premature failure.
• Noise:
Noise is a phenomenon where another type of wave form is superimposed on
the normal sine wave of power. Electrical noise is caused by many factors,
including lightning. Noise introduces glitches and errors into executable
programs and data files. When intermittent, it is probably one of the hardest
problems to isolate. Typically, software will experience hangs and machines
will reboot for no apparent reason.
IBM and the American Power Conversion (APC) formed a relationship to meet
essential UPS requirements for minimizing damage and loss associated with
power problems. The solution offered by IBM for protecting your system
integrates requirements for protection against power source irregularities that
your IBM Netfinity and IBM PC Server systems must withstand to maintain data
reliability.
