As a guideline, multiply the total wattage by 1.6 to get the minimum Volt-Amp (VA) rating your UPS should have. A qualified electrician on Kandua can do this calculation for you accurately. Add up the wattage of all devices you want to connect.

Here's what you need to know. A UPS provides instantaneous power with zero switch-over time, which is vital for sensitive electronics like PCs. Most inverters have a slight delay that can cause computers to reboot. UPS units also have built-in, high-quality surge protection in the Fourways area.

No. In South Africa, any work on your home's fixed electrical wiring must be done by a qualified electrician who can issue a Certificate of Compliance (CoC). A DIY installation is illegal, unsafe, and voids insurance.

This depends on usage, ambient temperature, and the quality of the battery. Typically every 3 to 5 years.

Overloading a multi-plug can cause the UPS to trip or fail. It's not recommended. For best performance and safety, plug critical devices directly into the UPS, and this is especially relevant for Fourways residents.
