Abstract
A method for controlling an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) having a polyphase power input and an input power circuit coupled to the polyphase power input includes determining to reduce a load on a first phase of the polyphase power input, and in response thereto, controlling the input power circuit to reduce a first input current drawn from the first phase by a first amount and increase a second input current drawn from a second phase of the polyphase power input by a second amount. The UPS may determine to reduce the load on the first phase in response to a request from a smart grid to reduce the load on the first phase or in response to a local determination to reduce the load on the first phase.
