Dear All,
I am a novice in electrical things. I want to install a UPS at home. I had doubt on wiring required for inverter.
Option 1: Is it sufficient we do wiring from our inverter to/from the mains..so that UPS gets charged from mains when utility power is there
and supplies power VIA mains to appliances(fans,lights,TVs, 5A power sockets) in the house when utility power supply fails THROUGH the existing domestic wiring from mains?
Option 2: Apart from wiring from/to UPS - Mains , separate wiring is required for appliances needing power from inverter and we CANNOT use existing domestic wiring to these appliances for supplying power running on UPS? This will involve addtional labour and wiring costs for separate inverter wiring.
Please clarify in a layman language which of the below options are workable and efficient so that I know the electrician I am going to hire is not taking me for a ride.
-Regards,
Satish
