Gents,
I have been asked by a friend: if the use of UPS to power florescent fixture lights (small Business ) is a good option? or the use of emergency light (with battery) will be more better.? in case of black out .
when I checked through the internet I found that UPS's are used mostly for communication sector and few of them are used for supplying such load .
if the use of UPS is good option how can I calculate the right rate(UPS VA or KVA ) for this load (4 fixtures approximately 0.5 Amp EA )(120 volts) (0.5x4x120 =240 VA) for 60 Minutes.
Please if someone tried this option (UPS for emergency lighting ) give me his advice .
Thanks &best regards.
