Leakage current from APC Back UPS products
Issue:
How can I gauge the amount of leakage current from my Back-UPS?
Product Line:
All Back-UPS models.
Environment:
N/A
Cause / Resolution:
All APC Back UPS models, by themselves exhibit less than 1 milli-amps of leakage current. If a load is attached, then the leakage current measured on the output of the UPS will include the leakage current of the load as well as the UPS.
Example:
Load 1 has measured leakage current of 2millli-amp
Load 2 has measured leakage current of 1milli-amp
UPS has measured leakage current of 0.5milli-amp
Therefore, the total leakage current that can be measured from the UPS input should be 2+2+.5 = 4.5milli-amp
