2.2Functionality

The UPS is connected to a shockproof socket between the public utility's mains and the loads to be protected.

Under normal operating conditions, i.e. if PROTECT B. is supplied with mains voltage, the battery charger will ensure that the battery is always completely charged.

During this operating status, the loads connected to PROTECT B. are supplied with voltage via mains filters which provide effective protection against mains voltage peaks and high-frequency faults.

In case of sustained mains undervoltage or overvoltage within defined ranges, the automatic voltage regulator (AVR) further
