    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is DC Power?

    DC power, or direct current power, is electrical power that flows consistently in one direction. In a direct current circuit, the electric charge flows from the positive terminal of a power source to the negative terminal. DC power is commonly produced by Batteries, Rectifiers, and DC generators. It is the preferred power source for the telecommunications industry and is generally designed to run at -48V and for the site load to have normally a minimum of 4 hours battery autonomy in the event of an AC power loss to the site Rectifier systems.

    Can Barbour Consulting integrate their computer and service room maintenance and build solutions into existing critical infrastructure?

    We continuously evaluate emerging technology and industry trends, helping you seamlessly integrate the latest advancements into your critical infrastructure. This future-proofing approach ensures your operations remain the forefront of the industry.
