The uninterruptible power supply (UPS) back-up system for the common areas of your community has been installed to provide emergency power to critical computer systems that control security and essential building services such as fire protection which cannot tolerate the typical multi-second delay that occurs with changeover to diesel or gas generator back-up power. If your community also has a back-up generator then it is likely to have been installed to provide emergency power to essential heavy electrical loads such as lift motors and fire pumps.

Regular testing of control systems, inspection and cleaning of batteries, checking of fuel tank and/or gas lines for back-up generator together with load testing of UPS and/or back-up generator is recommended so as to ensure that your common area emergency power system is ready for operation in the event of a complete power failure.

Star Building Management Services can provide regular emergency power system testing as part of a regular maintenance program via our team of UPS and generator specialists. Our 24/7 FM help desk also ensures that we can assist with emergency non-contract emergency power system repairs as required.
