Abstract
The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) design falls under the category of Low Voltage (LV), Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directives, and that of other regulations. Compliance to these regulations is typically verified through the UPS Product Standard 62040. By definition, a standard creates a set of rules to be followed, but as technology and the world evolve, these rules are refined according to this evolution. In this white paper, we provide an overview of the current situation and the upcoming changes in terms of UPS product standards and regulations.
