#Overview

The Locations component in Braiins Manager serves as a digital representation of the physical sites where mining operations occur. It helps organize miners by geographic location for more effective monitoring and management. Users can assign a base rate per kilowatt hour and a security percentage to track power consumption and integrate this data into energy reports. This ensures detailed energy monitoring, efficient resource allocation, and location-specific reporting, optimizing both operational visibility and billing accuracy.

Each location also generates a Braiins Manager Agent ID for agent setup.

#Location Details

When creating a location, you'll be prompted to provide:

• Name of the location: Descriptive label for easy identification.
• Geographical region: Location of the facility (Optional).
• Base rate per kilowatt-hour (kWh): Energy cost associated with the facility (Optional).
• Capacity: Maximum power capacity of the location in MW (Optional).
• Power security percentage: A customizable percentage used to account for energy measurement accuracy, explained below (Optional).
• Internal description: Optional details for internal use (Optional).

#Power Security Percentage

The Power Security Percentage is a unique feature of Braiins Manager that helps account for potential discrepancies in measured energy consumption. This percentage adjusts the kWh numbers generated by Braiins Manager's energy reports to improve accuracy. It can also be used to include power used for non-mining components, like cooling systems, in the overall energy calculation.

#Location and Braiins Manager Agent

When you create a location, it automatically generates an associated instance of the Braiins Manager Agent ID, which is tied to that location and you are prompt to install Braiins Manager Agent, see here.
