3.3 BYPASS
OPERATION
Bypass operation may occur for both manual or automatic change-over. The manual
transfer is due to the BYPASS SWITCH, that forces the load to bypass. In the event of a
bypass failure the load is transferred back to inverter without interruption.

The automatic change-over occurs for the reasons explained in the UPS technical
description (see paragraph 2.4.1); basically when the power supply to the load within the
specified tolerance cannot be assured by the inverter.
