UPS Full Form

Answer:

The full form of UPS is “Uninterruptible Power Supply“. It is used to protect critical loads from utility-supplied power problems, including spikes, brownouts, fluctuations and power outages, all using a dedicated battery. UPS runs on a battery that is used to supply power in the absence of a primary source or when the supply is cut off. Battery size is an important factor in the selection of a UPS system. UPSs are commonly used to protect hardware such as computers, data centers, telecommunications equipment or other electrical equipment where an unexpected power interrupt can result in data loss.

What is the use of UPS in Computer?

An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) allows a computer/PC to keep running for at least a short time when the primary power source is lost. Having your computer connected to a UPS protects it from electrical surges and outages. When computers shut down improperly, such as when a power outage happens, it can damage the computer’s internal parts and cause lost data. Having a UPS helps prevent the computer from being improperly shut down and helps protect the computer and its data. A UPS can run a computer for a few minutes which should give you enough time to save all your data so that you don’t lose it. Many UPS now offer software that automatically saves your data and Shuts down your computer. A UPS isn’t much use if you are working from a laptop as they have their own battery source.
