Why use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

2019-11-15

UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) prevents certain power problems. Mainly to prevent power outages, power outages, noise, spikes and surges. Each challenge presents different challenges to your computer system, and if left unrestricted, they can have devastating effects. So how does UPS protect your computer?

Power outages are one of the more common terms associated with power problems. A power outage occurs when the system completely collapses due to an imbalance between power generation and consumption. Sometimes this may be a complete power outage, while at other times, a controlled shutdown is applied to a specific area to avoid a complete power outage.

Power outages are not well known but are destructive. A power outage is the total loss of voltage, and a power outage is a drop in voltage. This means you will have very little power. This can last from a few minutes to a few hours. Although this sounds perfect, power shortages can damage your electronic device in a matter of minutes.

Noise is caused by interference between lightning and generators. Although this may sound trivial, it can cause the entire computer operating system to malfunction. It is also well known that this little-known power problem can damage files.

The peak is a sudden increase in voltage. Usually, these are short-lived current surges caused by lightning. Another reason for reaching the peak is to restore power after a power outage. After the power is restored, it takes some time for the current to return to normal. If you insert an electronic device when a spike occurs, it may be adversely affected.

High voltage surges are equal and contrary to insufficient power. Power outages are a reduction in power, and surges are an increase in power. Like power shortages, they have a short life span, but they can still cause serious damage, especially for large appliances such as refrigerators or air conditioners.

There are two main types of uninterruptible power solutions: the standby UPS and the Line Interactive UPS.

The standby UPS prevents power outages and surges. It constantly monitors voltage and current to find inconsistencies. If a surge or power failure is detected, it will immediately switch to battery power. This allows your system to continue to operate without powering down. The standby UPS is best suited for businesses with computer hubs because it cannot support multiple computer hubs at once. These usually cost $200-$500.


Line Interactive UPS is the most effective way to protect your computer and data from long-term issues. Line Interactive UPS is committed to continuously stabilizing the voltage and current that power your business. It does this through a regulator that automatically raises or lowers the input line voltage without switching to battery power, which extends battery life in the long run.
