Static bypass operation

During static bypass operation, the critical load is supplied directly by utility power. A single-line
diagram will appear on the screen with an orange line indicating the power flow through the External
Bypass Static Switch (SSW) to the load.

Manual bypass operation

During maintenance bypass operation, the critical load is supplied directly by utility power. Maintenance
bypass allows the UPS units to be isolated for maintenance purposes. In maintenance bypass there is no
backup from the UPS system to the load. While the UPS system is operating in this mode, a single-line
diagram will appear on the screen with an orange line indicating the power flow from the utility to the
load through the Q3 breaker.
