Imagine a power outage just before you wanted to save your work. Your work has gone into the ether, and you have to start again from scratch. Such uncomfortable (to put it mildly) situations can be warded off by the APC Back-UPS BX 950VA (IEC) uninterrupted power supply (UPS). This is just another name for a large battery that powers all appliances needing electricity. The APC Back-UPS BX 950VA (IEC) UPS features the Line interactive design approach. Off-line is seen as the most basic form if the electricity is interrupted, since it switches to the internal battery for electric power. The line interactive UPS enhances the simpler off-line version of voltage regulation to prevent damage from dangerous surges and spikes.
An important attribute is how long the UPS will function when the electricity is off. This depends on the power consumption of the connected devices – for example, at half-load (50%), the run time can last up to three times as long. The load of the backup source governs the operating time, which at maximum load is 1 min and at half-load, it's 6,5 min. It is therefore necessary to estimate the power consumption of the connected electronics and it is best to have some spare energy in reserve. The APC Back-UPS BX 950VA (IEC) specifies the apparent power as 950, but in reality, the actual power usage is 520 W.
