UPS Electrical Design and Installation by Critical Power Supplies.
Important considerations for the electrical design and installation of UPS systems in mission critical applications.
Where Critical Power applications are concerned, the electrical design and installation of a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) system is crucially important for several reasons.
Firstly, it must work in alignment with installations already on site and not interfere with other electrical
equipment. This is particularly important for industrial and healthcare installations where there may already
be critical equipment (medical and life support, for example) in operation.
It all starts with a site survey.
A pre-installation site survey will reveal details about the scope of the electrical work to be undertaken.
Such information will reveal, for instance, the type of electrical loads, power quality issues, harmonics, whether it is a
high, medium or low voltage installation and electrical distribution set up, including the breaker sizes already on site
and their discrimination.

A Consideration of Medium Voltage Substation Primary ApplicationsSchneider Electric
Copyright AIST Reprinted with Permission. Presented at the 2013 Iron and Steel Technology Conference and Exposition (AISTech 2013). Unit substations have long served as the method for reducing voltage from higher distribution levels to lower, locally usable voltages. One of the main considerations affecting the design of the substation and the electrical protection and distribution system as a whole is the primary switching device of a substation. By comparing the abilities and options inherited with both types of primary switching devices, an informed decision can be made for specific system designs.
A company specialized in uninterruptible power supply systems developed and manufactured in 2006 a system comprising a 400kVA UPS unit.
The system was installed in a production facility manufacturing food packaging equipment and foil, located in northern Poland.
Frequent voltage dips and fluctuations were severely impairing the production process, causing downtimes of several-hour duration, which generated substantial losses. Restarting the production caused another losses resulting from the process specifi city.
Typically about 200 kg of material was lost until final product was compliant with standards.

Why the Hybrid Rack Transfer Switch is Superior to ATS and STSRaritan
Lots of data center vendors offer transfer switches, but they normally fall into one of only two categories: relay-based Automatic Transfer Switches (ATS) or Static Transfer Switches (STS) that rely on silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs). Although effective in switching between power feeds, they both have inherent design flaws that hinder both performance and reliability – two areas where a hybrid rack transfer switch really excels.

2. Equipments are Under Threat
• Industrial equipments are susceptible to break downs &
malfunctioning due to poor power quality accompanied with
voltage fluctuations, sags, surges, spikes & electrical noises:
CNC machines
Rectifier chargers and UPS
Air-conditioning equipment
Equipment with AC input switch-mode power supplies
Process control & monitoring equipment
Micro-processor based machines
Printing Equipment
Telecom / Communication / Data Centre
Medical equipment/ CT scanners
3. Industries are Under Threat
Automotive
Textiles
Engineering
Medical, Diagnostic & Pharma
Telecommunication, Defence & Radar
Process industry
Data Centres / Printing / Surveillance
Office, Commercial, Residential spaces
• Industries, most affected in following sectors, lose millions of
dollars in burnt cards, downtime & productivity loss, consequent
upon electronic equipment break-downs & malfunctioning due to
power quality issues. Most affected industries are in the following
sectors:
4. Why is the threat growing?
Insufficient Infrastructure for the generation and distribution of electricity.
Primitive distribution capacities – too many users are competing for the limited
available power
Significant voltage fluctuations and power interruptions.
Variation anywhere between +/- 10% to 25%
Short duration sags takes the voltage down by even -30% or more for upto 200
milliseconds.
Standard AC drives, rectifiers & electronic controllers are not designed to
withstand such a wide input voltage window.
The likely result is lesser reliability and/or the possibility of equipment failure,
leading to unscheduled downtime; and increased costs for maintenance and
repair.
5. What is needed to handle these power disturbances
– Next Generation Power Conditioning:
The right solution is in using a highly reliable, maintenance free, fast
correcting Automatic Voltage Regulator, coupled with a suitable spike &
noise filter.
6. What would the next generation be like?
The old generation, aka Servo-motor based or tap-switching type
AVRs have a very slow response time and inherent performance
limitations. They have become obsolete for sensitive load equipment
such as CNC Controllers & rectifier based drives, using solid-state
devices, because of their inability to control sags, sudden
fluctuations, transients & noises.
The use of expensive UPS for power conditioning leads to major
investment and even more power losses.
The next generation would be smarter and economical. Everything
that no Servo or UPS can ever provide!

8. Operating AC Input Voltage Range and Output Regulation of VRP
(for 230 VAC output models)
Important data points
9. Tsi – Precision Power Conditioner - the ideal Line Conditioner
VRP provides real-time, precision control of:
• Voltage Fluctuations
• Sags
• Surges
• Spikes
• Electrical Noises
Voltage is corrected instantaneously, with a 20 milli second
response-cum regulation time thus keeping the voltage cycle
uninterrupted! There is no switching of taps or any other breakage in
the power path.
Its high frequency insulated gate bi-polar transistor (IGBT) driven
converter takes the incoming AC power, measures against the
nominal voltage and adds/subtracts voltage, to achieve precisely
regulated 230 VAC output.
10. Comparison of Servo v/s Vrp
Limitations of existing technologies Advantages with Vrp
SCR/ Relay Stabilizer switches the power path &
has frequent failures. due to inductive loads,
causing site reliability issues.
Vrp does not switch power path & handles
any nature of loads/ regulations.
Servo stabilizer is an electro-mechanical device,
with a limited correction speed. It is unable to
offer real-time control of sudden voltage
fluctuations & brown-outs
Vrp technology corrects the harshest
fluctuations instantaneously (within 20
milliseconds), so no brown-outs, no sags,
no surges. Ideal condition for modern
electronic machines.
Servo stabilizer brushes produce micro sparks,
causing electrical noises, often necessitating an
Isolation Transformer on its output
Vrp is all solid state, there is no switching
or sparking inside it, therefore its output is
always free of electrical noise, so no need
of an additional IT.
11. Comparison of Servo v/s VRP
Limitations of existing technologies Advantages with Vrp
Servo stabilizer does not have inbuilt surge &
spike control ability.
Vrp has inbuilt class II surge filter which
ensures that any surge, spike or noise from
the supply side is eliminated at the VRP
input itself.
Due to dust accumulation, wear & tear of its
moving parts, servo stabilizer is maintenance
prone.
Vrp has very simple design, all solid state
construction & no such maintenance
issues.
Servo stabilizer gives high voltage overshoots
in boost mode during mains outage/SAG cycles,
thus damaging precious equipment & causing
nuisance trips.
Due to instantaneous voltage correction,
Vrp never lets a SAG event persist & never
generates an output surge during power
cycling.
12. Comparison of Online UPS v/s Vrp
Stung by the failure of old technologies, & unaware of Vrp technology, many
electronic machine users have started using expensive online UPS as a power
conditioner, even though power back-up is not mandatory. Here’s why Vrp is the
most cost effective alternative to Online UPS ( where backup is not necessary)
Disadvantages of using UPS as a
power conditioner
Advantages with Vrp
Though online UPS is an all solid state
technology, its entire throughput power goes
through double conversion. Hence low
efficiency (typically 90%) & high OPEX.
Vrp is also an all solid state technology, but
only the compensating power goes
through double conversion, hence much
higher efficiency (typically 97%) & low
OPEX.
Due to double conversion of entire throughput
power, online UPS comes out to be huge in size
and very expensive, hence high CAPEX.
With double conversion of only
compensating power, Vrp is extremely
compact and much smaller in size, hence
low CAPEX.
Unable to handle regenerative loads. Any type of loading is possible.
13. The 20 milliseconds voltage correction magic time!
This ensures any fluctuation, how-so-ever sudden, any sag or any
surge in voltage is corrected wave-to-wave, on real-time basis, so as
to maintain voltage profile as per ITIC curve, which forms the basis of
electronic components design worldwide. Ensures pure power
desired by electronic components to keep performing.
{ }Other AVR technologies take anywhere from 200~3000 mS
(0.2~3 seconds) before voltage gets corrected, hence they
can NEITHER control sag cycles NOR surge cycles.
14. This 20 milliseconds voltage correction magic time tunes with a
surge, spike & noise filter to bring output voltage within ITI
curve. Vow, pure power for your electronics!
15. The same technology of 20 milliseconds voltage correction magic time which
saves customer’s valuable electronics also provides ITI curve power to our
own igbt regulation engine! Vow, high reliability for our electronic card too!
The voltage regulation engine of Vrp is located on its output, hence energized by the
output power, unlike a servo stabilizer, whose dimmers are energized by the input
power. Please see Vrp system architecture below. Because the Vrp provides output
power conforming to ITIC curve, therefore its own igbt regulation engine gets the
same output power which keeps it performing at highest reliability. Thereafter, the
same conditioned power also energizes user’s equipment, thus providing high
reliability to all electronics energized by Vrp. Very interestingly, therefore, our design
is centred around providing highest quality power to reliably run both our own
electronic card as well as customer’s expensive electronic machines.
16. Up to +/-1% Real-time Output Voltage Stability
• Superior protection for all your expensive CNC Machines
• Ideal for all sensitive electronic devices
• Minimized step voltage changes
{ }
Tap-changer AVR’s typically provide only +/- 5% to +/-10%
voltage stability. Servo AVR’s can provide +/-1% regulation only
under steady state conditions of voltage. These become
unstable under sudden voltage fluctuations & can not regulate
within +/-1% till the voltage correction cycle is complete
17. Overload Capacity
• Upto 200% (for 10 cycles or 200 ms)
• Ideal for starting air-conditioners, motors, rectifiers, switch-mode supplies,
X-ray machines and other loads with high inrush currents
• VRP does not have to be oversized
• VRP can comfortably handle regenerative loads as well.
Some AVRs have difficulty with motors, air-conditioners and
other loads with high start-up current requirements. Servo
AVR’s become very unsteady under regenerative loads.{ }
18. Reliability
• VRP has no moving parts
• VRP has few PCBs
• VRP has few interconnections
• In the unlikely event of a card failure, VRP has a fast automatic
bypass which will keep the mains supply on, within a pre-set voltage
cut-off range, free of surges/spikes & noises, as long as needed.
Servo AVRs require frequent brush replacement. Big problem if
brush gets jammed. Tap-switching AVRs are quite complicated
with too many parts and interconnections. Tap-switching AVRs
are quite unpredictable during zero crossovers under inductive
loads, which are present at cell sites. Both types need separate
manual bypass systems in case of failure, resulting in
unscheduled shut-downs.
