Even with an inverter, sensitive electronics benefit from an additional UPS — the brief transfer milliseconds during load-shedding switch-over can reset PCs and routers. We install line-interactive and online UPS systems for home offices, security control rooms and small business setups.
What we do
Size UPS for load and runtime, install with proper input protection, configure auto-shutdown software where applicable.
UPS vs inverter vs generator

|---|---|---|---|
