A UPS maintenance bypass switch is a device that allows utility or generator power to bypass the UPS system. It is necessary for your critical environment to allow routine and emergency service on your Uninterrupted Power Supplies system without interrupting power to your critical equipment.
The UPS maintenance bypass switch simply diverts utility or generator power directly to the PDU, thereby bypassing the UPS system. This allows the Uninterrupted Power Supplies system to receive maintenance without any downtime. In the event UPS repair or maintenance is necessary and no maintenance bypass switch is already installed, downtime could be inevitable.
