EPS 6000 Uninterruptible Power System 1.2.3 Inverter During normal operation, the inverter transformer provides complete electrical isolation between the UPS output to the Transformer attached load and the utility power source input as well as the UPS battery source. The static switch transfers the load between the inverter output and the bypass AC source without interrupting the supply of power to the load, allowing the load to continue operation while the UPS is being maintained, or in the event of a UPS fault.
