    That’s some appalling wiring practices to have equipment like that even able to be disconnected.

      That’s what happens when you let handyman Billy Bob do your electrical work.

    Something I learned early in my career is that nothing will make your blood pressure rise like a suddenly quiet server room except for the sound of the UPS tech muttering, “Oh shit. No no no no. Shit. Oh fuck.”
