Introduction
A UPS is a device that provides battery backup and electrical protection to the various systems that are essential to modern business and industrial concerns. They have common demands for a supply of electrical power that can help protect their operations from unscheduled and unplanned interruptions in power for whatever reason.
Together UPS and standby-power systems can ensure the security and integrity of computer systems, communications, security systems against sabotage, lightning, and power failures etc.
The course is offered as a two module course. The first module is theoretical and the second is practical. Delivery of the practical module “in-house” will depend on the host company’s training facilities and the availability of test equipment and UPS etc. The course can be modified to include the client’s equipment.
