+ UPS or Uninterruptible Power Supply provides continuous power supply to electrical or electronic
equipment in absence of mains supply.
+ UPS switches between main supply to battery supply almost instantly, thereby giving instant
power alternative but it provides power for short durations like 10 - 15 minutes.
+ This is useful in computers and laptops where the continuous power supply is very important.
+ An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is a device that allows a computer to keep running for at
least a short time when the primary power source is lost. It also provides protection from power
surges.
