Power Consumption Report Column Definitions

The data shown in the Power Consumption Report is aggregated to the selected Hierarchy level. For example, if you select Cage as the Hierarchy level, each row in the output report represents one day's data aggregated to the cage level. To see more granular data for each individual cabinet, circuit and meter, you must select those as the Hierarchy level for the report.

The Date on which the readings are recorded.

Each row of data corresponds to the daily values for each of the columns.

The Cage Asset Number is generated by Equinix back-office systems.

It is a unique number assigned to a specific cage.

The IBX is the data center in which the cage is located. The Cage is the ID of the physical location where the cage is located.

The Cage Serial Number is an unique identifier generated by Equinix back-office systems at the individual cage contract level and is tied to the Draw Cap of that contract.

A Cage can have multiple Cage Serial Numbers depending on the number of active contracts.

The Usable kVA is the total maximum allowable draw of all installed primary circuits in the cage. The Draw Cap is contractual kVA limit established per Cage Serial Number.

The Primary Draw (kVA) is the average kVA collected throughout the day at the Cage Serial Number level.

Data is aggregrated from primary circuits and power meters.

The Redundant Draw (kVA) is the average kVA collected throughout the day at the Cage Serial Number level.

Data is aggregrated from redundant circuits.

The Average Draw (kVA) is the sum of the Primary Draw (kVA) and Redundant Draw (kVA) for each day.

The Daily Peak Draw (kVA) is determined in the following manner:

  • Sum the draw across all circuits/power meters for each recording interval throughout the day

  • The interval with the highest draw is the Daily Peak Draw (kVA)

For example, where there are 15-min readings collected throughout the day, there would be 96 readings in total for that day and the highest reading is captured as the Daily Peak Draw (kVA).

The Average 30 Day Peak Draw (kVA) is the average of the Daily Peak Draw (kVA) values over the past 30 days.

For example, on May 30th, the Average 30 Day Peak Draw (kVA) value would be the average of the Daily Peak Draw (kVA) values from May 1st to 30th.

The ratio of the Average 30 day Peak Draw (kVA) to Draw Cap for the given date expressed as a percentage. The Total kWh is the aggregated daily kWh of each primary/redundant circuit and power meter within the cage.

Data is aggregated from primary circuits and power meters.

The Redundant Draw (kVA) is the average kVA collected throughout the day at the Cabinet level.

Data is aggregated from redundant circuits.

The Average Draw (kVA) is the sum of the Primary Draw (kVA) and Redundant Draw (kVA) for each day. The ratio of the Average Draw (kVA) to Usable kVA Installed for the given date expressed as a percentage.

The Daily Peak Draw (kVA) is determined in the following manner:

  • Sum the draw across all circuits/power meters for each recording interval throughout the day

  • The interval with the highest draw is the Daily Peak Draw (kVA)

For example, where there are 15-min readings collected throughout the day, there would be 96 readings in total for that day and the highest reading is captured as the Daily Peak Draw (kVA).

The Average 30 Day Peak Draw (kVA) is the average of the Daily Peak Draw (kVA) values over the past 30 days.
