By order of the publisher, historical UL documents are not returnable for any reason. Once you place an order for an historical document, we cannot issue a refund, credit, or exchange of any kind.
These requirements cover uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) rated 600 volts or less ac or dc that are intended for installation in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. During normal operation, the UPS allows the primary or normal power source to deliver ac power to the protected load through either the power conversion portion of the UPS or a bypass source. The power conversion portion of the UPS consists of a rectifier, an inverter, or both. During periods of power fluctuations, or power outages, or both, the connected load receives ac power from the battery supply and power conversion portion of the UPS.

For a cord-and-plug-connected UPS having an ac input rating of 20 amperes or less and 125 volts ac maximum, the battery supply is furnished with the UPS. For all other UPS intended for use with a remote battery and cabinet assembly, the battery supply may or may not be furnished with the UPS. 3.A battery supply that is contained in a separate battery room.
