Zusammenfassung:In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to operating uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). The embodiments may include a plurality of capacitor banks, a UPS control circuit, and a central control circuit. The UPS control circuit is configured to cause an output of a clean electrical power, sample the clean electrical power, calculate control algorithm outputs based on the sampled clean electrical power, and output control algorithm results to the central control circuit. The central control circuit configured to detect a degradation of the plurality of capacitor banks, and transmit a service alert in response to the detection of the degradation of the plurality of capacitor banks.
