Our first is the I want a UPS to power a panel
The SOLUTION... use a ups with an isolation type transformer. When you electrically power a subpanel, you feed the panel with 2 hots, a neutral and ground. However, normal UPSes dont have a separate neutral, more of a floating neutral. This prevents you from connecting these directly to a panel.
With the addition of a transformer, we can generate a fixed neutral and combine the 3wire output of the UPS with new fixed neutral. This 4 wire system can connect to the panel
