I have PowerEdge R740 server with dual power on Window 2016. Whenever there is a 1 power failure, I dont see any events in the Windows System logs. is it possible to enable the Windows logging for power failure?

Hello @avilt,
May I suggest you to use a different enviorement in order to monitorice hardware failures? Windows Server logs are not normally a good source for hardware failure as it will not catch enough information. You have many different options for server hardware monitoring like OpenManage Server Administrator, OpenManage Enteprise or the iDRAC.
I strongly recommend you to use any of this other hardware logs to not miss important information like warning and critical errors, firmware versions and many other hardware related actions.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
