This chapter describes the types of Static UPS Systems. That is, the mechanism of producing backup power from a solid state standpoint.

What we are not covering is rotary systems. This is because these are fairly specialised systems of use in high power environments, and we don't specialise in this type of system. We may revisit this in future.
