UPS is the abbreviation of uninterruptible power supply. Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is an electrical device, with an internal battery, that stores power to supply energy to connected devices if normal power is interrupted. It is used mainly to protect important data from main supply problems, such as spikes, voltage dips, fluctuations and complete power failure by using a dedicated battery.
Some might also use UPS to “bridge the gap” whilst a standby generator is started and synchronized. Do you know, investing in UPS is one of the most brilliant move you make when you are starting up a company or purchasing a new computer. Wondering why?
In this article, we will discuss on the importance of having UPS.

Suddenly, the power at your office went out and all your hard work is lost! Then you regretted not connecting your computer to a UPS. If only you have done this step, your data may have been saved.
2. Protecting Your Hardware
It is a proven fact that power outages can damage or even worse, completely destroy electronic equipment especially the computers. An unexpected shutdown can cause great damages to your computer hardware. A UPS in this case helps to ensure that the voltage that passes from the main electrical lines to your devices is consistently stabilized. In the event of short-term interruptions, it gives you sufficient time to switch to a larger, more stable power supply such as generator.
