Circuit breaker (battery) - DC circuit breaker that protects the battery of a UPS.(back)
Spiral Wound - An electrode structure of high surface area created by winding the electrodes and separator into a spiral-wound, jelly-roll configuration.
Voltage Delay - Time delay for a battery to deliver the required operating voltage after it is placed under load.
Inverter (on-line) - UPS configuration in which the inverter is in series mounted between the mains and the load. All power drawn by the load passes via the inverter. This is the only configuration used for high outputs.
Redundancy (standby) - UPS configuration in which one or several UPS units operate on stand-by, with no load or only a partial load, and can immediately back up a faulty UPS unit by no-break transfer of the load, carried out by a static switch.
Power Sag - Voltage below 80% to 85% of rated RMS voltage for one or more cycles.
Intermittent Test - A test during which a battery is subjected to alternate periods of discharge and rest according to a specified discharge regime.
