06 March, 2013 | Presentation

Pam Lembke, IBM
Stephen McCluer, Schneider Electric


Data center managers are often requesting lower harmonics numbers, but they do not always understand what the appropriate numbers are and why. Zero harmonics does not necessarily mean a better data center operating environment. This session helps attendees understand how to balance harmonics and efficiency, while providing a general overview of harmonics, including what they are and what they do.
