Cutoff Voltage (also see End Voltage) - The battery voltage at which the discharge is terminated. The cutoff voltage is specified by the battery manufacturer and is generally a function of discharge rate.
RMS Voltage - The range of usable voltage + or - 170 VAC.
Battery cells - The interconnected battery elements that supply electrical power created by electrolytic reaction.
Cubicle (parallel UPS unit) - Cubicle containing a rectifier/charger and an inverter. It is connected to one or several other identical cubicles and a bypass cubicle to make up a parallel UPS.
Earthing system - System for the interconnection and earthing of exposed conductive parts and neutral. There are three types of neutral system - IT, TN, TT.
