Well, seeing as that most pad mounted transformers use mineral oil as a
heat transfer agent (in applications up to and exceeding 230kv), I don't
suspect it is of issue.
However, we've all seen nice transformer fires.

Paul,
Using a multi-stage filter system with the large partical filters in front and
an ionizing stage to remove smaller but still large enough particals to cause
dust. Clean room filters would be an overkill.

Hi Mike,
Depending upon the type of DDOS, there are five things you should do in order:

E.g. mod_security for Apache web server, IPTables for host firewall. This will

I still think the industry needs to standardise water cooling to popularise
it; if there were two water ports on all the pizzaboxes next to the RJ45s,
and a standard set of flexible pipes, how many people would start using it?
There's probably a medical, automotive or aerospace standard out there.
