voltage and constant frequency utilising the battery system as a power
source until the input voltage returns to normal requirement. When the
power supply is resumed or the input voltage returns to limits, the
Converter shall automatically start and the load fed for normal operation
status.

ii) If the power failure continues beyond battery back up time or the battery
voltage drops to the final discharge voltage, the Inverter should
automatically stop and at the same time transferring the load to the bypass
circuit. On resumption of power supply, the Converter shall automatically
re-start the operations and charge the batteries whereas the Inverter should
inhibit automatic start and should be started manually.

d. Bypass Operation:

When power is supplied from the Inverter in synchronisation with the bypass, it
shall accomplish the following:

i) When the UPS output current reaches overload status it shall automatically
transfer the load to bypass circuit with no interruption and when the
overload status is cleared it automatically re-transfers the load to Inverter.

ii) When the battery final discharge condition is reached, the load shall
automatically be transferred to the bypass circuit without interruption.

iii) In case of failure of the UPS, the load shall be automatically transferred to
the bypass circuit with no interruption and when the failure is cleared, re-
transfer the load to the Inverter shall be done manually.

iv) There should be provision made in the system to prevent, when necessary,
asynchronous transfer.
