Up to 60% of businesses have no backup power supply for their offices and although they have yet to possibly encounter the losses experienced when there is a power outage the probability of it happening is huge. Regardless of whether your systems are mission critical or you simply require electricity to run your business, a UPS or generator is imperative to ensure that you experience no down time and trading can continue as per normal in the event of a power outage. The old adage of “it’s better to be safe than sorry” has never been so true when it comes to a backup energy supply and by ensuring your business is always switched on a huge amount of money can be saved in the long term.

A backup power supply is a vital component to almost every type of company, especially those running online systems or working in an IT orientated environment. Without a backup power supply systems will simply shut down with no warning, causing possible file corruption or a loss of data. Small businesses are especially at risk of large losses that can spell closure if a suitable energy resource is not available, as even a day’s worth of downtime can have a massively negative effect on trading.

There are 2 different types of backup power that can be utilized for both small and large companies and will not only save a great amount of money, but also potentially save a business. A generator is the first option for a backup energy supply and will ensure that a company can continue to run as per normal or on limited capacity with a skeleton crew. Generators allow a company to maintain operating standards and continue to offer services as needed. Generators can be portable or built in and many large companies have seen the benefit of incorporating a generator into their basement to ensure downtime becomes eradicated.

A UPS or Uninterrupted Power Supply is a device that provides battery backup when the electricity fails or drops below an acceptable voltage level. A UPS provides a company with adequate time to shut down its critical systems and save the data that was being utilized at the point of failure, ensuring that a company can avoid costly crashes or loss of information. A UPS companycan advise of the correct size and battery pack needed to adequately shut down systems, ensuring that a crash is avoided and infrastructure is shut down smoothly. Whilst a UPS does not entirely eliminate downtime it offers a reserve and larger batteries can power a small company for a limited amount of time if necessary.

A backup energy supply is vital for every office as data loss or downtime can potentially cost millions. The technology available to counteract the effects of a power outage ensures that downtime, data loss or systems crashing is easily eliminated.
