Black building tests can be of 2 ways (most commonly)

1. Simulate a total power failure - means shutting down power completely in a facility

Normally used for testing high availability, performance, business continuity plans and recovery capabilities in a disaster-like scenario

2. Test the functionality of generators, simulating a total (external) power outage, replaced by generator-provided energy. This does not touch any equipment except generators, thus not causing any disruption to systems
