UPS module maintenance

An uninterruptible power supply, UPS, also known as UPS (uninterruptible power supply English), is a device that, thanks to batteries or other energy storage elements, can provide power for a limited time and for a blackout all the devices connected. Other features that can be added to these teams is to improve the power qualityéctrica reaching loads, ups and downs filtering and eliminating voltage harmonics of the network in the case of using AC. There are different types of UPS UPS DC loads connected to the UPS require DC power, so they will transform the alternating current to direct current sales network and use it to power the load and store it in your batterys. So they do not require converters between the batteries and loads. UPS AC UPS obtained These outputs an AC signal, so they need an inverter to convert the direct signal from the batteries in an alternating signal. UPS standby (Standby Power Systems) This system has two main circuits: the power line, which only addsa stabilized and additional filtering of each team to normal feed, and the actual circuit UPS circuit whose core is called "inverter". It is called system "standby" or waiting, because the circuit of alternative power, the inverter is "offline" or inactive, waiting to become operational when it produces a failure in the power supply. It has a switching element that connectsand either circuit switched alternately. UPS line-interactive (in-line) This type of UPS regulates voltage variations by elevations or reductions in mains voltage. During these interventions, the UPS uses its battery to perform the voltage regulation. UPS online (online) In contrast, the UPS "online" (on-line), the battery and the inverter are permanently It is utiized, ensuring a maximum response in a timely manner before the event of network failure. In addition, they can also correct the frequency shifts as re-generate the ac wave permanently. Diagram UPS online In the picture (1) Rectifier The picture (2): battery in the picture (3): Inverter

IEC connector is the common name for a set of thirteen power connectors (called the connector specifications) and thirteen outlet panels (called input) specification defined by IEC 60320 (formerly IEC 320) of the International Electrotechnical Commission ( IEC). When used without other qualifiers, "IEC connector" usually refers specifically to the C13 and C14 connectors.

When carrying out an electrical installation or electrical circuit several factors must be taken into account, one of them is the selection of the appropriate cable. According to the installation and the use of the same we can find different diameters that support different loads. The cable section will also help us not to overheat our installation, since the larger the section, the greater the thermal resistance.
In the following table poWe can see the corresponding load supported for the different sections of cables.

As it is common in installations we can find a standard of colors in the electric cables.

These regulations help at a glance to understand the connection and the resolution of possible faults or failures.

Below we attach the color/cable relation for electrical installations.

1. The ground wire can be identified in several ways:
• Green cable.
• C cablegreen smell with a yellow line.
• Cable without insulation.
2. The neutral wire will be blue.
3. The phase cable can be identified in several ways:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulation.
• Brown isolate.
• Gray insulation.

The insulating or insulating tape is a fundamental element when making a repair or performing an electrical installation. The insulating tape will help us to protect and insulate the electrical cables from possible crossings or contacts between them or with other elements, guaranteeing that the connection is well insulated avoiding possible short circuits.
Its use is very simple, since being a flexible material allows us to apply it with comfort.
To achieve a perfect union, it is recommended that we wrap the tape covering half the cable and half over the joint, stretching the tape slightly while rolling obliquely.

• For the ground wire, colored insulation tape will be used:
• Green.
• Green with a yellow line.
• For the neutral cable, blue insulating tape will be used.
• For the cable the phase isYou can use any other color:
• Any color different from neutral or earth.
• Black insulating tape.
• Brown insulating tape.
• Gray insulating tape.

VAC would be the abbreviation of Volt Altern Current which would be translated Volts of alternating current. The difference between VDC is that its sinusoidal oscillation achieving a more efficient energy transmission.

The alternating current is the energy that we receive in our homes, it is generated in the power plants by means of alternators.

The intensity of this type of current varies with time, and changes direction 50 times throughsecond (50hz). The generated voltage changes in the form of sine wave so it is not constant.
