A large data-center-scale UPS being installed by electricians. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or uninterruptible power source is a type of continual power system that provides automated backup electric power to a load when the input power source or mains power fails.
Most forms of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) can be either powered by battery or flywheel energy. These are ready for immediate use at the instant that the mains electricity fails, but the relatively small and finite amount of stored energy they contain makes them suitable for short periods of use, typically in the order of a few dozen minutes to a couple of hours depending on the actual load.

The electrical problems were traced back to the power substation of NAIA Terminal 3. A cooling fan for one of the ATMC's uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) had failed and a backup power supply did not start, cutting power to the building. As technicians attempted bypass the UPS units to restore power to the ATMC, they triggered an inadvertent ...
