Ditto.. my response to that was to get a second circuit installed from a 
different PDU, and go to equipment with dual power supplies. The stuff 
that was on a single power supply got moved to an ATS.

Moral of the story: all data centers will have occasional power outages, 
but if they are built out properly (completely isolated gensets, UPS's, 
and PDU's), buy a circuit off each independent power supply, and the 
chances of a power outage are extremely low. Of course, there are always 
situations like the fire marshall ordering power off due to a gas leak, 
etc, but that's exceptionally rare.
