Abstract
An Intelligent Synchronization Module (ISM) for an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system for servicing a load is disclosed. The UPS system has at least one of a first UPS group and a second separate and independent UPS group, each of the first and second UPS groups having a master UPS. The ISM has a processing circuit and a storage medium, readable by the processing circuit, storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit for: assigning the first UPS group the role of master group and the second UPS group the role of slave group; and, passing phase information relating to the master group to the slave group, thereby enabling the master UPS of the slave group to effect synchronization with the master group.
