UPS battery lengths?
I'm new to all of this, so any help would be much appreciated!! I just installed my first UPS battery backup (APC BE550G Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V). FrontView is showing all systems green on ...
If your 550G shows 476 minutes remaining in Frontview, I'm going to guess you have nothing connected to the battery backup outlets on the UPS. Check closely, some outlets are connected to the battery, some are surge only. Be sure you are connected to the battery side. For an NV+ you should see less than 45 minutes on a 550G (assuming nothing else connected). Reality is it will be even less than that in a real world power outage. Partially because battery discharge is not linear, but also because the UPS electronics take some battery power to keep the inverter running.
