How is a UPS considered a non linear load and have a power factor?
If the input to the UPS is normal utility power, then the equipment that is fed from the UPS is still being fed from the utility power. When power fails, the UPS's load switches over to battery supply. But at this point, the utility is no longer feeding the load, so shouldn't there be no non linear loads upstream of the UPS?
