7.2.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode, utility AC power is supplied to the UPMs. Power from the output
of the UPMs i s then supplied to the SSBM for parallel operation. The SSBM then
supplies the critical load with clean, filtered AC power. The message “System
Normal” appears in the status area of the Control Panel LCD screen.
Figure 7---1 shows the path of electrical power through the P arallel
Capacity/Redundant s ystem when operating in Norm al m ode.

If the utility AC power is interrupted or is out of specification, the UPMs
automatically switch to Battery mode to support the critical load with no
interruption. When utility power returns, t he UPMs return to Normal mode.
If the UPMs becomes overloaded or unavailabl e, the SSBM switches to Bypass
mode. The SSBM automatically returns to Normal mode when the error condition
is cleared and s y stem operation is restored within specified limits.
