Is Power Stabilizer + UPS fine/safe?

[xxxbabyxxx]

Hello,

We have Hafco Power Solution Power Stabilizer (60 Amps), and we have UPS, where each UPS doesn't stabilize the power by themselves.
Our electricity is unstable, sometimes its as low as 199v or 202v and sometimes its almost 240v.

We have that stabilizer and wanted to ask if it's safe to run the UPS to it?
We have 3 UPS, each got a computer connected, and we plan to run that Stabilizer for the whole house to maintain 220v Output. Is it safe? anything I should worry about? the UPS is a PMT Pure SineWave UPS connected to lead acid batteries and SMF batteries.

Each UPS is using almost 1 Amps+

Thank you.

Most PCs don't care about voltage fluctuations you describe. A quality power supply will support 90VAC to 250VAC. You need to look at the technical specs for your devices.
Outages are a different story.

Thank you for replying 🙂


I'm using CoolerMaster Platinum 1000w PSU on my machines, https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/power-supplies/v-series/v1000-platinum/

However when the power is too high ,example 238v I notice the GPUs, the pc fans and everything even SOUNDING louder, that sometimes I can tell the voltage is high just by the sound of the components.

Lately, I've had many issues happen in my pcs where sometimes the voltage went above 241v which is more than the 240 the PSU can handle, and usually its swinging around 230 235 or too close to the "edge".

Sometimes I had issues where a GPU fan stop working and I have to fix it, monitor dies out etc.. the whole voltage is a mess of either being too low or too high that it's really unstable 😕


The UPS works fine during outage, as they are using batteries and provide pure sine wave 220v, so that's never been an issue, the issue is when the power is actually on, and its constantly low or constantly high.

That power stabilizer can apperantly provide clean 220v to the house, which would solve a lot of the "headache" but the reason I'd still use the UPS is due to outages, so I wanted to be sure if it's safe to still use a UPS in a situation like this, if its totally fine or if there's anything we should look out for 🙂 thank you

I think you could use the voltage stabilizer as the input to the UPS. I have no idea if that voltage stabilizer is any good, or what the resulting waveform coming out of it looks like.
I can't find any documentation for the power stabilizer.

Alright thanks, but overall its alright for a UPS to be connected to a house thats running on a house stabilizer right? i thought we'd be doing something strange but if its normal then it would come down to that stabilizer itself i guess?

I live in the US, so I don't have the problems you do. I can't speak for "normal". I would try to find technical info on the output of the stabilizer.
