'A power outage at "Europe’s largest purpose-built data centre”, Global Switch 2 – which knocked one customer offline for two days – has been blamed on a high voltage fault. '
'"This caused an interruption to power for the supply feeding services within the Claranet Suite within the Global Switch 2 Data Centre."'
'According to GS2, its London East data centre is designed and built to an enhanced Tier III specification, and delivers 46MVA of power and cooling. '
'All customers lost access to services based in the GS2 data centre on Saturday 10 September, according to an interim incident report issued by hosting provider Claranet today and seen by The Register. '
'The Global Switch infrastructure protected supplies, but one of the four power stations experienced a 222 millisecond switching event. '
