Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

In industrial process today, reliability of equipment is very important. Power supply must be able to cater the need of industrial process. In case of power failure, backup power supply system must be able to support the main process plant. This is to ensure smooth operation and product quality. In order to do this, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system can be used to ensure the reliability, power quality (PQ), stability and consistency of the entire system.

There are often cases that the power back-up system is not well selected, incorrectly installed, operated, maintained, and in other cases do not work properly when needed and this failure caused losses in term of time and money to industries. A system that be able to monitor this power back-up system can detect any abnormal activities occurred to the system. In addition, the system can prevent any fault that may affect the whole operations.

The main purpose of this training course is to provide a practical detailed guidance for facilities engineers in selecting, installing, troubleshooting, and maintaining an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system.
