Don't forget to check the power requirements of the equipment your going to
plug in those UPS. If they are under powered they may cause more problem
than they solve. I installed our swepfield on two 1,2KW UPS to spread the
load. Leaving me a few 100s watts to spare, but not that much. They waren't
cheap, but neither are the systems they are meant to protect.
