Fuse Replacement
A spare fuse is provided in every Back-UPS unit.
Once the input current exceeds 10A for 600VA or
15A for 800VA, the installed fuse in every unit
will interrupt the circuit to safeguard connected
equipment from excessive input currents. Replace
it using the spare fuse, or with a fuse that has
similar input current rating.

Automatic Voltage Regulation boosts/trims the AC voltage when it drops/exceeds safe levels.
This allows the equipment plugged into the unit to operate during low/high voltage conditions,
conserving the battery power in the event of a power cut.
The Back-UPS will switch to battery power if the input voltage level becomes too low/high for
the Automatic Voltage Regulation to compensate, or if the AC power is distorted.
