ABSTRACT:
A motor generator set that is used to provide clean, noise-free power to a load, such as a computer, is upgraded to a complete uninterruptible power supply by the addition of a logic controlled, battery powered inverter that is readily connected in the main power supply line to the motor generator. The emergency power inverter operates only when normal utility power fails, and employs the ability of the motor generator set to handle brief power outages to power the load for the brief time needed to decouple the main line power supply and couple the inverter to the motor generator. An oscillator that clocks trigger pulses for the inverter tracks motor voltage frequency and phase until power is supplied to the motor from the standby inverter. Switching to the emergency power inverter is accomplished by detecting both reverse power and zero current.
