Frequently asked questions
VA or watts?
Both appear on a UPS. Watts is the real power it can supply, and it's the number to size against. Add up the watts of everything connected and choose a UPS rated comfortably above it.
How long will it run?
It depends on the load. Check the runtime chart on the listing. At half load, a typical 1500VA UPS might run for 10 to 20 minutes, which is enough for a clean shutdown rather than all-day running.
Line-interactive or online?
Line-interactive units suit most offices and comms rooms. Online (double-conversion) units give the cleanest power for sensitive or critical equipment, at a higher cost.
Can we buy on account?
Yes. A trade account gives access to trade pricing, bulk discounts and credit of up to ÂŁ20,000, with a named account manager for repeat orders.
Equipping a whole team?
A dedicated account manager for every trade account.
