Ed, The standard way of doing this is something like this: Public Power -------------------------- | BBM ------- PDU ATS ----- UPS ------- | Generator Pak ---- ATS is Automatic Transfer Switch, and BBM is a Break Before Make Switch and the PDU Is a Power Distribution Unit.. The BBM let's you take the UPS down completely to swap batteries and do other scheduled preventive Maintenance, normal operation is Public Power -- UPS -- PDU -- Systems.. .
