query about psu and ups

[codakias]

hi!!if my psu goes dead when the pc system is working,will the ups protect my hardware or not?

No, because the PSU is between the hardware being protected and the UPS. A UPS protects the system in the event of a power surge, lack of sufficient power, or power loss, but this assumes the PSU is working properly.
