I am using EDSA to do some calculations on the Arcflash and Faults on some downstream critical panels below the UPS.
I was getting some funny results. When I looked closer I realized that the 100 KVA UPS was blocking EDSA from seeing the protective devices on the upstream Main panels.
Then I got to thinking , just how does a 100 KVA UPS behave during downstream fault conditions? Does the UPS' sense the fault and its internal breakers open to protect the UPS and pass the fault up the Staic Bypass?
If so that would certainly change my EDSA model! Or does the fault on the lower panels actually pass up the output side of the UPS and through its inetrnals.
That would sure change my EDSA model!
