I would have thought the lessons of the LATCC power problems would have been learnt across the company.
I think they have been learnt. NERC may have its problems but power is not one of them.
No 2 Workstations on a Sector Suite run from the same Power Supply. Server pairs are powered from a different supply. Even if an UPS was to fail, the backup UPS would 'step-in' without interrupting the power.
I can't guarantee that Power will never fail totally but its the closest it can go
I believe NSC was going to have a similar system before it was cancelled.
Why not retrofit into LTCC/MACC/ScACC? I don't think it is physically possible while in Operational Service (too much kit has to be powered off to do the wiring)
