5.2.4 Maintenance Bypass Mode

An internal maintenance switch (IA1) is used to safely supply utility power to the system
output during periods of maintenance or repairs. Before this switch is used, the system
should be transferred to bypass. This switch has two positions: “O” (OFF) and “l” (ON).
When switched to “l” (ON), the bypass source supplies the commercial AC power to the
load directly.

While on internal (static) bypass, when a user rotates the maintenance switch from the
“O” (OFF) to the “l” (ON) position, the load is wrapped around the UPS, and power is
removed from the entire upper portion of the UPS allowing service work to be completed
on the UPS safely.

Figure 5–5 shows the path of electrical power through the UPS system when operating
in Maintenance Bypass mode.
