3.2 Operation Overview
The UPS provides two power paths between the utility source and the critical load.
Figure 3-1 shows the path for normal operation, with the load powered by the inverter.
Figure 3-2 shows the path for bypass operation, with the load supplied through the static bypass line. Figure 3-3
shows the path for backup operation, with the load powered by the inverter.

Figure 3-1 Single Line Diagram - Normal Operation: Load fed by UPS inverter
During normal operation, the path through the UPS inverter is used to power the load.
In Figure 3-1 input AC power is converted to DC by the Converter. DC power is utilized to charge the UPS battery
and to provide power to the Inverter. The Inverter converts the DC power to regulated AC power to supply the
critical load.
