[QUOTE="enthusiast29, post: 2484264, member: 86432"] [USER=103922]@Heisen[/USER] 5ms is a lot less and I have serious doubt inverters have a switching time of 5ms because even dedicated line interactive UPS advertise switching time of 6-12ms max. As per my knowledge and research all UPS mode in inverters does is narrows down the input voltage range to switch to battery sooner (not faster, there's a difference). Typically inverters switch to battery mode when voltage reaches outside 85 - 290 V level. Now this range is quite large and this means even if your input voltage drops to 100 V your inverter will not switch to battery just yet. Now when UPS mode is enabled this range is narrowed to around 180 - 265 V. Now as soon as your voltage drops below 180V your inverter with switch to battery even if it's a momentary spike. I'm speaking practically here as I've tested these scenarios and on Luminous inverter. [/QUOTE]
