Are you talking about a battery-backed up power supply? Power normally comes from the power grid, but in the event of a power failure, it comes from battery storage?

Google "uninterruptible power supply"
Let me google that for you (http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=Uninterruptible+power+supply&l=1)

There are also automatic generators that will kick in when a power failure occurs. I'm familiar with Generac, but I'm sure there are other brands:

Any chance your looking for a rack mounted trasfer switch?

Rack Automatic Transfer Switches (http://www.datacenterresources.com/Racks/Rack_ATS.asp)

More detail of what your situation is and what is needed will be helpful.
