What the shared parts are
- MV switchgear, E-houses, power skids — Medium-voltage switchgear packaged into pre-fabricated electrical houses (E-houses) or skids that distribute power across a campus and can be factory-built and shipped as modules.
- LV switchgear, switchboards, panelboards — Low-voltage electrical distribution equipment — switchgear, switchboards, and panelboards — that receives power from MV/LV transformers and distributes it onward to busway, PDUs, and building loads.
- Prefab / modular data centers & power/cooling skids — Factory-built modular data center units and prefabricated power and cooling skids that are assembled off-site and installed as complete, pre-integrated blocks.
