Even if the UPS quality is questionable, as long as your line power remains active, it shouldn't cause problems. Avoid connecting monitors directly to the battery section and configure the software to power down promptly after an outage. For better reliability in the future, I’d look into APC UPS models, as they are very dependable with solid shutdown controls.
If by line power you mean wall power, my workstation can overpower my circuit during heavy loads. That means my UPS might not be the problem, and the bigger concern would be the line power or wall power itself.
Confirmation received, thanks. Now, regarding the situation—does this align with your expectations? Since my line power circuit breaker isn't tripping, is the UPS stepping in when it detects a potential overload on my line power? I have a Tripp Lite AVR900U rated at 480w / 900VA, and I'm just seeking clarity on how the process works.
Yes, I'm in the US. I need to review my apartment's wiring, which is a different topic. A few circuit breakers are tripping often. Your rig seems similar to mine (according to your comment). You might get the same power as I do minus one GPU. Any advice on a UPS unit? How much higher should my UPS be rated for wattage compared to your workstation's power usage?
